Perhaps the M5 will receive an update at the same time...
In any case, I would prefer the 4.4T

Keep in mind, companies file for lots of trademarks that ultimately do not get used.

This is crazy... during the 7 years of the E39 they didnt even update the engines at all for all 7 years... I think they might have boosted the 540 like 7hp during the last year of production but in the 4-5 years the of the E60s life it has received like a million different engines.
