Wow, thanks for sharing. The car sounds pretty good (the 6 did too). Sounds like you had a fun day. Congratulations on the new 545!

Re: Saw the E60 M5 on Nordschlief today!
Thanks, great videos! Was that the M6? Difficult to tell. But they sounded fantastic! Does anyone here have any guesses what the AMV8 Vantage power is? I've read various sources rumouring at 350bhp to 400bhp and more than 400bhp ... hmm ... very tempting indeed. The V8 Vantage will probably put up a good fight with the new M's.

well, the video was filmed during manufacture's testing session isn't it?

so that means BMW was refining the car. the car is probably either the M6 or 630Ci, and i doubt it's the latter.
