At first glance it appears the BMW 5 Series models seen here wearing a slightly different front bumper depict the upcoming facelift. But in actuality they're test mules for BMW's upcoming new engines particularly the inline six cylinder turbo. Set to debut in the 335i Coupe (E92) sometime this winter the modified front bumper is designed to accommodate the new engines with increased airflow. The 5 Series will receive a minor facelift much like its predecessor, the E39 5 series. But it's safe to say that these 5 Series models are not it.

Wonder what the out put would be , 340 -360 bhb? it will be a good base for tuning right ? changing the turbo ? :cool: :cool: :cool:

A 335i will be the only car that could tempt me away from an M3. Should be able to chip the turbo lump to similar levels of the new M without the need to pay M3 running costs to the dealer.

It's gonna be a brute for sure, and it's almost certainly gonna allow them to hike the price of the new M3 much higher. Will be interesting to watch it pan out.

Yes, it's going to be very interesting how they price them [hmm , but the new M3 is deffo in for a good price hike - starting @ 47-49k + spec ?? :(
