I am looking at getting an '02 Z28 and adding a couple mods onto it and was wondering if anyone knew the stock rwhp of a 00' BMW M5 (boss drives one).

you should beat him stock.....

I don't care about beating him stock, I just want him to shut up about "bladity blah" mine has so much HP. I know it says around 396 HP, but I was wondering if that was RWHP or if it's all motor.

They are formidable once they get some rpm going.

EDIT: Just read 00 my bad. I could care less about BMW so I didn't even think they made them in 00???

That's a 2010 isn't it? I searched but couldn't find anything saying stock RWHP on a 2000 BMW M5.

Most HP ratings by the manufacturer are BHP. Brake Horse Power. Horse power measured at the flywheel of the engine, not RWHP.

That's what I had thought. Bear in mind I am definitely a newbie to anything engine related. Learning a lot though. I have the Commonly Used Acronyms sticky printed out and posted up around my desk lol.

Thanks for all the input to those that helped!

He is a bit of an ***, but he didn't buy it for performance. Simply for a daily driver once he sells his Honda Fit *ROFL*. He got a crazy good deal on it, so he's proud of it. But I can't wait to get into an F-body. Going shopping Tuesday so hopefully I can grab one.
