BMW typically underates the power in their vehicles. The M5 has been quoted as low as 2.8 seconds to 60, and many of the vehicles have more horsepower than what BMW puts on paper. Also, there will be an X7 M50i in a year replacing the X7 50i which will have 500+ hp and more torque, as the engine from the 8 series is making its way into other vehicles. |
considering my G05 50i will do 0-60mph in 4.25s or less their 4.6s number is conservative assume you know how to drive. N63M also has an overboost ability during launch control (I didn't use launch control because DSC off is quicker)
