N63tu Engine 450hp?

I know when the 2013 BMW 550 sedan was released BMW's website said that the car would have 450hp, but it ended up being a mistake. I have heard rumors that the November and December Production cars will have the new engine, can anyone verify or is that just a rumor?

Only the GT models will be getting the power increase... It's BMWs desperate cry to sell more of those "interesting" models.
