all 3 of the german manufacturers have said that they want to concentrate in lowering weight than continually increasing power so 550hp sounds ok to me. |

V8 twin turbo?, What about the next generation V10 with + 600 hp Scott talked about a wile ago?. That will be much better. |

It's waaaaayyyyyy to early to start throwing out numbers for the next M5. There needs to be a GCZ "vaporware" section for these kinds of threads. Anybody can toss out a number that's 15 to 25% more powerful than the current M5 and they'll probably be in the ballpark. Big whoop. |

Too many conflicting reports these days. According to this article the next M5 will have TT V8 with 536 HP.  - ONLY REGISTERED AND ACTIVATED USERS CAN SEE ALL LINKS - CLICK HERE TO REGISTER |

Why do you need 600 hp in a sedan?! That's just pointless and non efficient. It seems like the talk about decreasing hp (or not going for more) is just going to stay on words. |
