BMW ///M5 v10

oh wow, the powerslides (drifting) gave me chills. That's one awesome car.



A friend of mine has one, but he certainly never drives it like that!
 
Oh my god, that track scene was so AWESOME :cool: :bow I was smiling the whole time. Those drifts simply rocked.



I loved the narration of the driver and how he kept looking at the camera and not the track! What a nut he was.



I'm suprised he didn't have to wear a helmet.
 
Yep, frequent looks at the camera, constant smile, and laughter on a professional racing course while drifting, sometimes with only two wheels on the ground. That to me =

FUN!
 
Cool! no problem glad you enjoyed :)

You know there's a v12 coming out right? Waiting list to 2007 :eek:
 
It's very nice but the power is on the downside for a V10. The Mercedes E55 is a Supercharged V8 and it produces 469 horsepower and 516 pound-feet of torque. I'd love to see a video of these 2 beasts going head to head.

I don't think that the V10 engine of the M5 is down on power at all. 507 hp is pretty impressive figures considering its all motor (no force induction). anyways, that was such a nice video. I think BMW hit another homerun making a 4 door supercar.

I have the video. If you have somewhere for me to host it, I will post it. 8,000 kb. The m5 wins with four people sitting in it =). Or email me, and I can try to email you? lol.

I don't see how it's down on power either, considering it's a 5 liter. The number of cylinders isn't that relevant here. 5 ltr, 500HP, that's 100HP per liter, all natural. Used to be you only saw Hondas/Acuras with that kind of specific output from an NA motor.



But yes, a head to head with the E55 would be nice.



:cool:

Exactly what he said!!
 
That was a blast! Thanks for posting the link. I had this great big grin and thinking "This guy is insane" on the track sections. He obviously knows how to drive. Fantastic car, BMW has done it again. Oh would I love one...

I've seen one on video before aswell.



New E55 vs the new M5.



dead even till 60mph then the M5 rapes it. 7 gears sure helps :bounce

can't wait for our dealership to never get one. hahaha
