"The previous generation M5 set a new benchmark for high-performance sedans and BMW will move the standard once again with the new M5 V10 rated at 507 horsepower and 383 lb-ft of torque in the European version. The new V10 is a 90-degree V design with a redline of 8250 rpm and produces more than 100 horsepower per liter. "

All I can say is WOW

 

Yep BMW engines are nice.....too bad they ruin them by slapping a BMW body around them

 

Thats one over weight s2000. But M5 is definately a sweet ride. I'm still getting use to the 5 series styling.

 

Not true...they are only ruining the new ones. I'm sure the M5 will be a rocket ship but I just can't get past the looks of it, it's just plain ugly. I have seen some flattering renditions of the E90 M3 but I'm guessing it won't be much better than the new M5 when it arrives.

 

The new Z4, 7-Series, & 5 Series have been terrible. Truly sad as I considered the previous generation 7 series (and 5) probably the best looking high end sedans out there. I wonder how this car will stack up against the E55 (at least in the straightline).

 

Agreed exceprt for the Z4...it has grown on me quite a bit. I like it alot but would not buy one unless they stuffed the S54 into one.
