I have a feeling actual tests will show the X3M to be a tad quicker or equal. I just don't think the extra power is enough to offset the weight. Same with 1/4 mile, but on a longer run X5M would pull ahead
The power to weight ratio significantly favors the X5.

The X5 will be faster...the 8 cylinder makes 550+ lb ft. at only 1800 rpm, the X3 makes 110 less lb ft at 2600 rpm.

At least to 60 mph, even at 5400 lbs, the X5 will be faster...
