I can tell its a 550i with the rectangular exhausts, the thing is a V8 Twin Turbo with 400 hp. He just watered down the car by putting an M5 badge on it. . . .moron. I dont know whats worse, his sense of logic or the fact that he insults people's intelligence :-/ Anyway, have they made ECU upgrades for that motor, I'd imagine that car would be an even greater powerhouse than it already is.

They have a Dinan chip out now that boosts HP close to 500 and torque 570+ lb/ft! ....that's close to M5 territory I would say.

A tuned 550 should easily take the M5 2nd thru 4th gear. The v10 isn't all that impressive like it used to be few years back. I drove my brothers slightly modded M5 up to 170 back when he had it and 1st-4th feels relatively the same in terms of time taken to get up there.
