Can we beat a X5 4.6is?

Last night, I was playing with a X5 4.4i (4 tail pipes).
The XUV is about the same acceleration 0-100km close to our TL-S. But we have a slightly edge over them.

What about the 4.6is? The BMW website claim a 6.7s 0-60mph acceleration. Our is about 6.5 or 6.6s. Are we close?

They are much heavier.

The 4.6 weights the same as the 4.4. The 4.6 has +50 hp and +26ft lbs torque advantage over the 4.4.

My girlfriend has one and man is that thing fast! Ive played around alittle with her on the roads with my TLS but she always beats me off the line but she doesnt have the balls to take it more that 80
But the amazing thing about those trucks are the handling!

I know that the new Z4 had a DVD-based navigation system (at last!), so BMW does have them now. I just don't know how extensively they've fitted them onto the other models.
