Actually, there was a thread yesterday where the X6M went 0-60 in 4.3 seconds with a curb weight of 5200+lbs. I think 4.0 should be easily attainable even with the current 550hp & 500ft/lbs on a 4k+ M5 sedan. Definitely good numbers ahead!!

But that time was accomplished with all-wheel drive

I am wondering the same thing... it all depends on traction... 0-60 in 4 second flat is my guess, but I cheated using vimulator
I've seen numbers from 4.1 to 4.6 for the current model. Truth is probably more in the middle for a good driver. Those who don't know how to launch being the higher, perfect launches being the lower.
I think the new one needs to break the 4.0 mark, 3.8 for a low, and 4.2's for high. It needs to set a new benchmark like all new M5's have in the past.

Agreed, but d@mn 0-60 in 3.8 in a 4200lb family sedan -- that would be ri-dic-u-lous!

i think a good indicator for what the new one will be able to do is whatever the e60 M5 Dinan 5.7 stroker does. because the power and weight of that will probably be close to the new one.

Yes it would.
But why not? So was low 4's just a few years ago when the current model came out. (Still is one of the fastest elite 4 door production cars made). Anything less would be too close to current numbers of the NA V10 and would not separate it from the current numbers of the CTS-V and others. If they can get the XM6 in the mid 4's, it's not out of line. BMW's heritage is about defining the category and setting the benchmark. Here's hoping.
Linear Mode
