OOH.. M5 has always been my dream "cheap" power-car (cos its not and will never be a super car but it would be nice to pull away from most pieces of tuned up rubbish in town) since I was taken round a track by a policeman. I will go for the standard version if and when I get the dough, only problem being my wife would take it cos she drives more than me!!!

That IS AWESOME. Seriously though-am i the only who appreciates this? Twin Turbo charging is no easy feet especially on the already highly tuned and high reving V10-i think its an engineering marvel. They could have left the wheels and interior alone though.

I'm with you, Matt!

Not that i like rims and interior (), but everything else...

And with that speed both CLS and E V12 from Brabus fall on 2nd place; this is the fastest 4 door saloon in the world. At least for that they deserve credit...

810bhp BMW V10 M5 by Currency Motor Cars - 03-19-2007, 09:57 AM



810bhp BMW V10 M5 by Currency Motor Cars
The World’s Only Turbocharged V10 M5

Currency Motor Cars is proud to introduce the first of an unprecedented line of supercars. This flagship model is an ingeniously modified 2006 BMW M5 that can reach a top speed of 240 mph. This makes it the fastest, most powerful luxury 4-door sedan on the planet. CMC co-founder, Ron Cash, has brilliantly outfitted BMW’s compression V-10 engine with twin-turbo chargers and a custom inter-cooler system to kick out an astonishing 800+ horses.

No one in the world has been able to achieve this...until now.

This is the only car of its kind. The mind-boggling power of this vehicle is complimented by the exquisite alterations of it's interior. The leather in the steering wheel, arm rests and dash is the same as the leather in the seats. Fully aniline dyed Florida Crocodile in black. Only the finest suede and leathers have been used, much like the old Delahaye and Bugatti roadsters in the 1930's.

This custom interior is all meticulously hand stitched, designed and installed by Judy Amic-Angelo, one of the the most respected product designers in the country.
