AlexFW:


K.A. ESS staff,

I and members of the E60 forum would appreciate a clear statement as to the expected availability of the kit for the 545 E60.



Thanks!




ESS:

Hello,

No plans for this kit at the moment. M5 is the next car we will do.
Regards,

Hans Petter Kirkerod

Can I have a suggestion, members, about some serious (and suitable) insults for this situation?

After 2-3 years of their mails saying "In six months" and "Late 2007" or "Half 2008", I think it's the moment to get angry.


How many people would get it for sure?
Because I bet they have it as test car but don't want to continue the development.

They are completely idiots: how many 545i /550i /645ci /650i there are in US and on Earth?
Seriously, does someone have a number? 100, 200 thousands cars?
They are developing a kit for the M5... I answered there are 547578658756800 V8 for each M5.
