Good video, thanks!
20s from so to 0 to real 200 (from 00.03 to 00.23) .
Not bad for a 530i, but 545i is still faster.
I think it hasn't 340 HP --> considering the time, I would say 300/310 HP.

To be honest wonder why he just didnt get a 545 for the money he dropped on the 530+supercharger. I guess for the cool factor, though the 545 is faster and can be much faster with mods.

I was going to say that this could be the notorious member, redwhiteblue, who was banned 7 times on this board (under different names of course), but then I noticed that his odometer read km/h and not mph, so I know it can't be him. Oh well. Hahahahahaha!
