just get the chance to run the uk coloriser for the revised e60...the m aero looks quite different in the photo. i dont know if its just the quality of the photo, the front spoiler looks flat compare to the current one.
If the differences were going to be anywhere it would be there since, IIRC, the front foglamps and assembly are revised for the LCI.

the emission on a 3.0 twin turbo isn't any better then a 5.0 engine. I think they are close...

secondly, the temptation to keep both turbos kick-in at all times... imagine that? use more gas, perhaps?
?

Just FYI,

CO? emission was recently reported on a large selection of cars currently available in Germany. Here are some of the BMW models that were listed. The following results are in grams output per one liter of fuel comsumed. These are factory test results and the actual road test amounts were much higher.


Model _ CO? Emisssion

- 335i @ 228g

- 550i @ 260g

- 650i @ 267g

- 535d @ 177g

Though this has gone somewhat off topic:

This is a pointless measure. Big engines consume more fuel per unit distance travelled so emit more C02 per mile.

I thought the measure used (well at least in UK) was g/km travelled NOT g/l of fuel used. This seems to allow much better comparison of environmental impact between vehicle models.

Hopefully we can go back on topic now.
