    Doesnt come out until 2010. There is a version of this motor currently in the X6 and new 7 with 400 or so HP. This is a reworked version of that motor

    Car does not start production until fall. There is already a TT version out but is only making 400. This new motor makes 555hp.

    A few car magazines have done some test on it but BMW says the ones given to test was similar to what the production version will be but not the same.

    BMW says the X6M should run 4.5 0-60. Talk about a fast grocery getter

    And for the X5, it was just a BMW toy from what I understand...

    I hear a porsche cayenne turbo S is faster than a 911 around barber from a few skippy instructors. I'd like to see this vs. 335 or 135!

    They left the dual liquid/air intercoolers off the front for the pic. You can see one of the intake manifolds on the right bank. It comes out of the turbo and loops through the intercoolers and around into the intake. Its setup backwards from a typical V engine so the exhaust goes down the center.
