A 530BHP family car...

I need to get myself a family ASAP!

[mystic sport]

Got the family, just need the car. Hopefully depreciation will be a bitch and its hello 507bhp (or is that 530 :D )

[Cannondale99]

Does 530PS work out to be around 507bhp?

Does 530PS work out to be around 507bhp?

1 PS is approximately 1.014 bhp..

530 PS works out to 522bhp...

still, in standard form, thats pretty good..imagine what it could do, with some careful performance tuning ;)

[uberbmw]

damn, thought 507 was enough!

anyone see it on Topgear, Jerermy was praising it! after pressing the M button! lol

[MistaSmiff]

I hope that kid pushing the buttons knows what he's doing ..LOL :D

That must be the first M car that actually makes the same, or more power than they claim.

Need to sell the house me thinks, and move myself and my good wife back with my mum :D :D :D . I soooo want an M5 (E39/E60) I don't mind :rolleyes:

Is that maths right?? [bang

if 1PS = 1.014BHP ==> 530PS = 530 x 1.014 = 537.42bhp

Unless of course its the other way round...

either way - its frickin quick!!!

Saw 1 about 10 mins ago at the dealers, instant hard on. Looks amazing in the flesh.
