not a BMW !!! :rofl2:

Engine is naturally aspirated? too much power how!!!

Individual look interior and exterior, only the rear is similar to Audi R8.

that's an S2000 with more displacement (approx 120bhp/L and redline of 9000rpm)....... veryyyy low torque in comparison to today's supercars..

a very interesting design nonetheless :)

[Bisho]

You think BMW exceeded 120bhp/L?

[Bashar M.]

nice looking toyota :rofl:

[stoned-head]

all hail the next hyper-supra :bow:
I love it when some " beemawe rabe3 " live in self denial :lol:

[Haissam]

the supra became what it became because of the Twin Turbos & the mod-friendly capability!

this one should've been a 4L V8 with TT to become the successor!

[eoudeh]

waaaw.....i like the steering wheel and the dashboard as well....good find
4.8-liter V10 putting out 560 hp at 8,700 RPM with six speed gearbox..its amazing!

[Bisho]

i never said that.. :spank2:

I understand.

I mean, BMW passed this power limit? cuz M5 E60, is only 510 HP 5.0L.. this Lexus more!!!! how come BMW can't beat it???

[RAFiK]

^^ Bisho ur questions r weird man !!

BMW are know of producing engines that run much less power than they can actually produce & this is due to their safety concerns. They prefer producing a safe engine that can live up to 300,000km easily with all driving styles.

We all know that a slightly tuned E60 M5 with just couple of drop-in filters will produce about 550HP .. I knew M5s that were producing 600HP from Headers + Exhaust + Tune + Scoops..

[Haissam]

well BMW can't be the best in everything....

not to mention that going very high on bhp/l normally reduces the torque levels which isn't so good :) but luckily BMW started using turbo's now which means more power & torque with less displacement :)
