Eh, I was kinda close. I read it somewhere awhile ago. I guess I mixed it up a little bit.

So does that mean/imply that there were 30 designs done between the emergence of the E60 and the E90??? THIRTY designs??? If so, where are they? E61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67, etc ....

where did you get it from?

Usually, Roundel magazine.
Let's think about the trend here for F10 555?(replacement of 550)
Back to E39 540 4.4L engine cranks out 280ish hp, and 530 did 225hp
Then E60 545 4.4L cranks out 325hp, and 530i did 225hp
Then E60 550i 4.8L cranks out 360hp, and 530i did 258hp
For future F10, could it be 555 and displacement is 5.0L or 5.2L and cranks out roughly 400hp, and 535 will be 3.2L and 325is hp?
Late F10 will have 425ish hp depending out our friend MBZ and Audi.
On and on. Hp war is good as long as mfr keeps fuel consumption increase to the minimum (1 or 2mpg more).
