yes ive seen it and i like it alot and the V8 that powers it, but i like the M5 a lot more. i want both but we shall see my insurance is crazy enough and my insurance guy said he didnt think i could get another car so one of the higher ends might have to go.
im not crazy about the front clip but i would "adjust" it a bit as i do with my others.

Car and Driver is guessing 410hp with a 440hp option later.

Road and Track (May 07) Shows 420 hp at 8200 RPM and a pretty flat torque curve of 295 lb-ft from 3000 to 7000 revs. Low in my book, but it's screams BMW Horsepower via RPM. If you've driven a BMW you know they are RPM friendly and use horsepower rather than torque. I'd personally like to see a little more grunt down low, but I suppose that's why I also have the '57.
For those of you that are interested, but did not see the C/D issue...the 440hp version will be a lightweight M3 CSL.
