If they knew how to do this... Well my personal opinion, an old saying that goes, " rome was not built in a day" so is M5. M5 will always be the class leading car. Horsepower alone will not take you anywhere you unless you tie the horse in an arrangement.This is where the M5 excels. . "power without control, is a disaster" = Mercedes SLR. In terms of hp and torque benchmark, currently its the Mercedes and their subsidized boys, Brabus and AMG. - Mercedes CLS Brabus SV12, fastest production saloon in excess of 1000+ torques.

M5 is not just about engine output. :D beat M5?
if see on hp output alone it might be..
