I've been searching google, but those numbers range from 5.2 - 5.8. So what is the real average 0-60 on the 545i. I figure this is the best place to ask

Thank you

5.6 was my best with my 545i SMG. It could have been lower if not for traction issues. There was a lot of tire spinning before hooking up.

All the mags. have it set at between 5.2 and 5.8. Most seem to be mid 5's.

Also keep in mind this is in the hands of a professional on a track usually.

I know on the BMW website they only show the current models performance figures. Does anyone know of a (reliable) website where one can access these figures on older BMW's?

Probably mid 5's, all cars differ and i'm talking about the same models! Some just better than others.Weather conditions, road surface, tyre brand etc.

Stock? mid 5s...

Modded (ECU REMAPPED, EXHAUST/CATS, AFE or DINAN, SCOOPS) maybe less of 5s.... Ah! don't forget to remove your mat floors and aux tire!
