2011 BMW M5

It’s not a purist argument. Even the old I6s were light years better than the I4s. I just dont like FI motors when they are getting the same power NA.

I also have a vested interest in whatever BMW releases since I race BMWs that need BMW engines and transmissions. Half of the new equipment BMW is releasing cant translate directly into racing. Costs for me to do this in the future are going up fast.

the taillights on it kinda remind me of the new jaguar taillights a little

:wtf

Bimmer guys coming out of the woodwork.

GD lurkers.

i was just thinking that too… idk whats up with the head lights but i like the 07-08 headlights better

doesnt it have a bra covering them slightly so you dont see the entire housing? laziness is keeping me back from going back a couple pages to check lol

Literally nothing anywhere on the body of that car will see production. Highly doubt it, it’s a test mule, it’s just to play/fine tune suspension geometry, and a platform to test the motor/trans.

It’ll be sick. Just wait.

yea, regardless, the m5 always look amazing

all the M series look amazing

true, i think out of the m-series tho, i would take the 5er over the rest…“when setting speed records, you’ll need witnesses” best fucking sloagan ever

:nod

i have yet to find a better automotive slogan than the m5’s lol

Gotta love M cars. :nod

+1

you’re from ricekiller aren’t you? :ninja

…until you need to do maintenance on them.

Hey man, I got the rebuild done on your Holley 4 barrel. Swing by the county fair later to pick it up. I’ll be by the truck pulls as usual.

:lol

LOL

LOL This aint your grandaddy’s pushrod, boy-howdy. These motors use cams. Plural. Lots of em.

To add fuel to the fire there are a lot of people on the bmw forums currently complaining about the lag on the 335/135s due to new software updates and wastegate cycling. Something you would never have with an NA engine…
