Saw that a while ago, and yes it is awesome. The car was perfectly composed through the roughest the 'ring could throw at it: of course I expected nothing less. However, I found the CTS-V's run even more amazing: not as fast course, but when you remember you're watching a 4,300lb sedan with an automatic transmission...

A midclass is more like something with a 3 in it not the ones with the 5s.
BMW has a 1, 3, 5, 6, and 7 series, so 5 series cars would be in the midclass.
No, a 3 or 5 series with a reasonably sized 2 or 3 litre engine could be classed as midclass..

Only in North America could a 5litre 500hp V10 5 series be described as midclass

Just saw this on YouTube, but DAMN. If the Z06 can pull that out, I want to see the video for the ZR-1!

Youtube video of Z06 going flat out on an airstrip
