But Stamina_man is correck

BMW has NEVER made a V6 in that model.....or any model up to now with the hybrid AFAIK.

V8's yes, V6's ...NO. They make INLINE 6's.


So did the owner "specially order" BMW to build a one-off engine for his car?

Or maybe you just get chainup by the owner

On another note, I saw the said BMW earlier this week.

[steupsss]

steupsssss all this over a lil 5series ..... come on nah man or should i say men and girl!

firstly...miss groupie (BMW-M1Girl) << :s its a 6 cylinder inline OK?!! someone lied to you.. so act like a normal girl (like me) and just stay off sites you have no clue about.
secondly.. remove those pictures immediately!

thirdly .... to mr. crazy_ztune unlike the other MEN that commented you obviously possess a personally hate to the owner of this vehicle ....so other than cryin like a lil nookie on a car blog site go cry to your mummy n daddy... thay might actually give you the attention your lookin for.

yeah boy, the older ones looked better. The Queen still uses the older ones i think

[scotty_buttons]

but i like the look of the evoque ... well from the showroom at least.. how much they sell a piece? more than a mil ent?? steups

the 458 Italia reach yet?

[LLW]

looks SWEET to me....like a "baby-range", especially with the headlight LEDs and the look of the muffler tips. Back seats might be a bit cramped. From what I understand, the price ranges from $TT600K to $TT800K. They also come with side cameras (front-facing)...which is a plus in my book!

At that price though, I might yield to an Audi TTS.

Yep - the "base" model is $600K. But as you'd expect for a base Range Rover, even that has pretty much everything you'll need.

One thing it has going for it that other similar sized SUVs (Q5, BMW X1 & X3) lack is some pretty competent off road capabilities.
