Default An Article from Autoweek suggests the M5 will have a V10 w/ 500 HP +...

"When BMW's fourth-generation 5 Series rolls out at the Frankfurt motor show in September 2003 it will feature a new 380-hp, twin-turbo 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder engine. The next-generation sedan (E60) inherits many features from the latest 7 Series such as a shift-by-wire six-speed automatic, active roll stabilization and a simplified version of the iDrive system controller. BMW will follow in 2005 with a 500-hp 5.5-liter V10-powered M5 designed to provide the M5 with a direct link to BMW's F1 involvement with Williams..."

ok... the heat is unleashed from the bimmer folks.

those new 5 series, if this is correct, will be burning some serious rubber<ul><li><a href="http://autoweek.com/cat_content.mv?port_code=autoweek&amp;cat_code=car news&amp;loc_code=&amp;content_code=09295784">the article</a></li></ul>

Default oh and ANOTHER thing...

your character has drawn over 1.5 million dollars out of our gang bank and hasn't contributed $.01. Would you set your bank pay to the gang and put your money INTO the gang please.

SOME of us are trying to commit to it...Frank even left me in charge of his character while he's out of town so it wouldn't let the gang down!
