Yea, same engine as in the GTRs and V12 LMR. I think with it being in the X5, 0-60 is around 4.7, which was a little higher than I expected. They should put the car on a diet :D A CF X5?

I never understood the whole hype about the E46 M3 CSL. It not THAT much faster than an M3. I can see that people might want it for exclusivity. I think in the case of the X5, the CSL can't stand for Coupe Super Lightweight (L is actually Leicht), but something else. Mabe SAV Super Lightweight? SSL
