Some people are just lucky. Gustav from GTBoard.com is definitely one of them. Not only he gets to film all kind of crazy drag races but this week he even had the chance to drive one of the rarest M5s in the world: the G-Power Hurricane RR.
What makes it so special? The German tuner (known for its outrageously overpowered creations) only built 5 of these 800 HP beasts and all of them have already been sold. Now you know.

However, you should also know that in order to achieve such a number, the guys had to work extra hard, fitting the E60 M5 with 2 ASA T1-316 superchargers, new pistons, an engine remapping and of course some bigger brakes.

The end result has almost 300 extra HP and 800 Nm (590 lb-ft) of torque, reaches 100 km/h (62 mph) in 4.35 seconds, 200 km/h (124 mph) in 9.5 seconds and 300 km/h (187 mph) in 25 seconds.

Looking at those numbers, it's no wonder that Gustav was so careful with the car and didn't actually push it to the limit but rather tested how well it coped with small country roads. It was a fun experience nonetheless.
