This thing looks AMAZING!

I might get this instead of the X6M now...

You can buy those F1 wheels from WheelSTO.
They'll only run you $12,000!!!

remmib · 09-16-2009, 05:29 PM

Sure loks like BBS FI wheels.

But what's up with the towbar?!

MCMLXXXIX · 09-16-2009, 07:21 PM

the front bumper looks like an m3 bumper, no?

Yeah, for at least 40 grand more? It better beat the Caddy!

HOLY GOD let me get on the list.

The CTS-V is a refined, daily driving Z06 that can pretty much beat down any BMW, MB AMG, or Audi RS/S on the road currently, especially if tuned a little, and at a fraction of the price. The handling alone is quite a impressive too. Dont knock it if you haven't driven it.

With that said, this new M5 will be something special, especially if >500hp and 20mpg (combined).

I noticed that too!

Holy shit i think it is a carbon roof. I didnt notice until it was brought up so good observation. And, respectfully, i couldn't disagree with you more Santa34. While the weight of the car may still be on the heavy side, a carbon roof will still lower the center of gravity on the car. It might not be an earth shattering difference but either way having a carbon roof just makes you the f-ing man. IMO. To each his own. I want one.

I think you very well may be right, as I don't see a moonroof in any of the shots either

d3l0n · 09-17-2009, 03:13 AM

omg it has the m3-like bumper....

TK-421 · 09-17-2009, 11:50 AM

I think they're BBS...

Hope your patient, won't be here for some time.

Still no Brembos. When will BMW realize that M car needs to have Brembo brakes? Even a Hyundai and a Chevy have them from factory!
