Going up the Baker grade, a BMW 735 tried to pass us.

Come on. Whupping a 3/4 ton truck going uphill can't be too hard, right?

At 110mph the Beemer caved in. :D

The trip to Vegas was 18.0 mpg, at roughly 85mph average.

Nice!

However you picked the weakest model they made to gloat a spanking, they slapped the 3.5 inline 6 into that model for fuel economy, at 125 on flat ground they are done.

Run a 15 year old M-5 or perhaps a 10 year old 760 and see how it goes from 75-140 mph.

Regardless, nice Kill going uphill!

Bah! I gave him the "move"; it was a fair fight. :D
Besides, they are both 4 doors.

For M5's? They have to play with our Z06. Same outcome. :D

Beemers: They just aren't for breakfast anymore! Try one for LUNCH!

Cool, It's all fun:D

C'mon though an inline 6? Give him the move, time to downshift, get to 5K rpm and downhill. You'd still "kill" him.:)

I don't wanna take the "thunder" from the fun.

Congrats
