Eh, sounds like this guy is butthurt against Porsche's, or at least the 918. 0-60 times have been faster than the rolling 5-60 since WAY before launch control has come about.

Pretty impressive results for the M2!!! Still have yet to see one in the flesh.

Plenty of folks chimed in to say things had been this way for a long time. He said he just used the 918 as an example because it had been in the news recently.

Definitely some great times from the M2.
