[QUOTE=alexaugs;14316438]The new BMW M5, revealed in our spy photos here, will drop the 5.0-litre V10 engine, in favour of a twin-turbo V8 How do we know this is the new BMW M5 and not a regular model? Those four pipes are an M-car giveaway, plus the giant disc brakes, big rims and lowered suspension Well, the new twin-turbo 4.4-litre V8 is said to send around 540bhp to the rear wheels. It’s the same engine seen in the X6, but with attention lavished on it by the experts at M Power’s experts in their HQ in Garching near Munich. ![http://www.carmagazine.co.uk/upload/9923/images/1BMW5seriesSpyPhoto.jpg](http://www.carmagazine.co.uk/upload/9923/images/1BMW5seriesSpyPhoto.jpg) ![http://www.carmagazine.co.uk/upload/9923/images/2BMW5seriesSpyPhoto.jpg](http://www.carmagazine.co.uk/upload/9923/images/2BMW5seriesSpyPhoto.jpg) ![http://www.carmagazine.co.uk/upload/9923/images/3BMW5seriesSpyPhoto.jpg](http://www.carmagazine.co.uk/upload/9923/images/3BMW5seriesSpyPhoto.jpg) ![http://www.carmagazine.co.uk/upload/9923/images/4BMW5seriesSpyPhoto.jpg](http://www.carmagazine.co.uk/upload/9923/images/4BMW5seriesSpyPhoto.jpg) 540bhp TT V8?! :wow ---
