in my latest :Automobile" magazine, theres an add or article. Hmm, which was it? Anyway it was something pretty official saying that the car would have an available tt inline four. I had to do a double take. I cant believe they put the v8 twin in that freakin x6 it should have a tweaked monster in a special m3! Dielsels are going to do well here! Way to go BMW for trying new bold stuff

 

BMW AG.... #1 Technology wise in the Automotive Industry.

Gotta love the pull of a FI V8 from the factory

 

thats crazy !

 

Heard the TT V8 should be in the 5 series as a 555i. The current 550i has an na V8 that makes 360 hp. The latest motortrend has it going 13.3 at 105 in the quarter. By the way, the 535, which is rated at 300 is almost as quick as the 550. Not sure how that happens with such a difference in power.

Looks like the 555 may hit the 12s? Not bad for a luxury car.

 

The TT 3.0 that comes in the 135/335/535 are under rated...

They put down 270-80rwhp and just under 300rwtq from the factory.
