new 6 to use F1 V10!!

i heard that the new 6 series is to go into production, and the engines available will be 2 V8's, the 3.5 and i think either the 4.4 or the 5.4 from the M5. The best bit is that they are also going to use the Williams-BMW V10 F1 engine, modified for road use and with the revs brought down to about 10,000 max. Cant Wait

Maybe the V10 will be based on the F1 engine, i havent heard that to be honest, but its rumoured that it will push out 500 bhp!

meh i dont think BMW needs a M7, because the 760i/Li already has 438 hp. but a good thing would probably be a 760Si/LSi or is/Lis that would boost it to 500-520 horsepower. but then the M6 and M5 would have to be very special as well, the M5 M6 having to be 550-600.

Im sure one the BMW tuners has done something to that effect (maybe not 700bhp though)

Hartge, Schnitzer, Alpina, no-one's worked over a 7?
