Love it. Always one of my favorite cars. Much better than the E60.

I think its a twin turbo V8 but I could be wrong. Is there an option for a manual? Lovely car regardless!!!

560hp (at 6,000rpm)
501 lb-ft torque (max torque at just 1500rpm)
Average fuel consumption: 9.9 litres/100 kilometres (28.5 mpg imp)

I find all three of the above stats just awesome.
And two believable.

Really nice looking 5er, I wasn't sold on the line before but this may be the first five series to turn my head on the streets.

Haha... no sh*t. 28.5mpg my a$$. Must be a misprint. 28.5mpg for an average SENIOR driving on the HIGHWAY I'll believe.

Yea, when Tanner drove the X6M he said if you were flogging on it it was down around 9mpg! I think this is the same engine no?

Well it says imperial MPG which converts to 23.7 US mpg, which still seems high but probably driven very calmly, will have to wait for the as tested numbers.
