i say again -- THESE are the best shot's currently available online for this prototype car.. sad to hear no one cared in other forums -- you are a rockstar!!

hmmm, other than my current supercharger -- i have always had more to do with forced induction plumbing. But odds on its either
1) aircon condenser, 2)an oilcooler or 3)what im hoping it is!

anyone from the Subbie/GTR/EVO world wish to enlighten us NA boys?

David, lol, you are such a bada$$

---Nice Pics!!!

:cool:

:worshippy

i believe that all BMW dealerships have the 5-Series available for test drive or either in their showrooms so if u wanna see the 5-series close up, call or pay visit to ur local BMW dealer, cuz mine(Ramsey BMW) has it in white, and teh 545i was available for test drive but didnt test drive it

the bmw m5 has been the king of sport sedans and always will be. the new m5 is just going to wash away the E 55 and RS6
