V10 please

BMW originally leapfrogged Mercedes and Audi by using a V10 on the M5.

It will be ashame to leave the legacy to Audi. Audi has the same emission constraints as other auto makers and if they can continue to make a case for the V10, I don't suppose why BMW can't do the same.

I agree that a twin turbo V8 will produce more power than the current 5.0 V10. But a turbo charged V10 will no doubt has even higher horse power.

Audi just confirmed an RS7 (based on the upcoming A7) with a twin turbo 5.0 liter V10 producing 600hp. V10s will also continued be used in the RS6 and S8
