Look at this engine. Under the bonnet of the new BMW M5 lies a newly developed, high-revving V8 engine with M TwinPower Turbo (consisting of Twin Scroll Twin Turbo technology, a cross-bank exhaust manifold, High Precision Injection petrol direct injection and VALVETRONIC fully variable valve control), maximum output of 412 kW/560 hp at 6,000 – 7,000 rpm and peak torque of 680 Newton metres (502 lb-ft) between 1,500 and 5,750 rpm. The instantaneous power delivery and sustained thrust familiar from M cars are the key to acceleration of 0 – 100 km/h (62 mph) in 4.4 seconds (0 – 200 km/h/124 mph: 13.0 seconds).

The Turbos, sit in the V wedge of the engine, between the cylinder heads.
Man, those things are going to generate alot of heat, and melt the engine covers....LOL
Also look over top the strut towers, could this be an active suspension, or airmatic?
It looks like wires running into the strut towers to me.

Here is the interior layout.
It looks like BMW has gone to a six piston front brake setup.

I'm sorry to say but the car isn't aggressive enough compared to the standard f10. Styling on the E-class has gone a long way recently, what with the CTS-V "esque" front and rear look
As long as the internal wastegates hold up and the HPFP doesn't fail, should run like a champ

I like the E63 interior better though. Heck, I still find the W211 interior to be pretty awesome.

Check this out guys...that engine is freaking backwards from you average V8. The intake manifolds are on the sides ( where the exhaust manifolds normally are ) and the exhaust manifold with the turbo's are in the V ( where the intake manifold normally lies ).
Pretty crazy setup.

Great photo, to capture your assessment. And I think that your total spot on, on this one.

Straight line speed aside, the car just looks more tossable. And I'm betting it will be if it lives up to the typical BMW M chassis.
Yullie, no air suspension but it will have electronic dynamic dampers (EDC), similar to Porsche's PASM.

Take a look at the engine outside of the car. They actually reversed the intake and exhaust ports! Old school but I bet it make packaging much easier.

I'll take a regular W212 over an F10 due to my appreciating for its styling and engineering more-so, but something about "M5" is just so cool. I'd have a tough time choosing between an M and the E63, if I wanted one of these cars. I'd probably go E63 anyway, knowing me.

With the turbos and the exhaust manifold in the center "V" of the engine, how are the turbo downpipes and exhaust with the built in cats routed? That I would like to see.

Shame because I was seriously considering the sedan before I came to my senses and bought a CPO E63 with a longer warranty for less money and low miles....
