Z10! Then they start over flagship model first then work they're way down they have added a large coupe in there as well which is why they came out with it in 2004 later then it was suppose to after the 5er.

So it goes, later this year M3, this fall you could see a Z10 maybe next spring. Then Year by Year 7 Series, X6, 5 Series, Z4, Z1, 6 Series, X3, 3 Series, 1 Series, X5, Z16.
well, the 7,5,6 release was fucked up anyway thanks to the fact that the stockholders were screaming for the E65. I think the 7 was released about a year too early. That's why the E60 didn't have anywhere near the problems the E65 did because BMW had to field test the damn thing instead of doing their full R&D on it.

Yeah, the original M5 wheels look better, but those new rear lights are pretty cool 8)

550i with 408bhp from a 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8...isn't that a low hp figure? BMW should be able to get 408bhp without TT??

BMW has a tendency to be very conservative with their bhp-figures and they propably don't want it to step in too much on the M5:s territory. Marketing you know.
