i guess it remains to be seen if the F700 is tech or design personally i wouldnt say that just beacuse of one F car (F200) the F700 will be MB´s future.. but who knows

 | Re: F01 BMW 7er - spy pics -- PART II ^^^^ Hahaha! Nice one Porsche Guy. I completely forgot that the W220 is like a carbon copy of the F200 (the front at least) Now Artist cannot say the F-series cars are only design concepts. They CLEARLY are not. All the best with the new S class, MB guys  So far, signs point to a horrible looking car!

| Re: F01 BMW 7er - spy pics -- PART II V8 with 490hp, thats more than 760Li. So can we expect 530hp for the V12?

Oh and V12 must get some serious update/power boost. By the time next 7er arrives, current 445 hp will seem weak. The article also says the new V8 diesel will push about 350hp.

As for the current V12...Tycoon, I've always thought it was severely underpowered. Right from the start. And it's a damn shame, because it probably is the best V12 in production, and is capable of so much more. For the next V12, I think 550 hp is the minimum. So 350 hp for the V8 TT diesel, and 490 hp for the V8 TT gasoline...The Diesel looks a bit underpowered actually. The difference has always been much less (286 hp vs 306 hp and 330 hp vs 367 hp) But then again, the current V8 4.8 is an old, NA engine, so..... Edit; From Autozeitung: Quote:
April 2008, more dynamic, the chances for an M version of the 7er are 'not bad'. 6-and 8 cylinder direct injection.

| Re: F01 BMW 7er - spy pics -- PART II klier, 350hp diesel is one stage turbo, not 2. Only an update of current engine in 745d. And yes, i agree that V12 is underpowered compared to the one in S600 for example, but 550 seems too optimistic to me... 510 or so would do the job.

| Re: F01 BMW 7er - spy pics -- PART II Ahhh, that explains it perfectly well. Never thought of that, lol I guess they think 350 hp is enough for a diesel, no need to twin turbocharge it. However, with a power upgrade to the current 3.0 TT diesel, which is bound to happen, it'll be awefully close to the new V8 diesel.
