straightline speed has simply never been a BMW forte.

if you want pure straightline speed time and time again, i'd go 2011 mustang GT.

car & driver also applies a correction factor given testing conditions at the time. edmunds.com does not do this. it's just too difficult to compare different testing methods against one another. it all has to be in the same group, on the same surface, the same driver with the same method.
