That bonnet is bloody awful! What do you need a power bulge for on a turbo straight-6? Pointless.
The engine bay houses three turbos and a giagantic intercooler that sits on top of the engine, hence the reason for the bulge.



That's a chargecooler not an intercooler. See the two pipes coming out of the front they carry water from a small radiator on a seperate system to the engine cooling. Probably an electric pump too. Much smaller box but much more efficient cooling. Trade off is more weight and a complex system

i reckon the best bet is to look at E60 M5 prices after the F10 M5 came out, perhaps?
Not sure of that Ross. Mention E60 M5, people reply lousy gearbox.
Hmmm fair point I suppose.

Looks stunning cloud9

Hope they offer those colours on the production version. Will be a shame if it ends up like the E92 M3 which you could be fooled into thinking is only offered in Alpine White...

I was really fancying the 1M orange or black but now I'm thinking Estoril

If my numbers come up tonight I'll have mine in Laguna Seca blue please.

I think the hangover pi55 yellow probably looks way better in the metal.
