Knowing the BMW M5 is not as strong as it’s direct competitor from Stuttgart, the Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG, it’s no surprise that the first rumours about a facelift arrived this week. The new M5 will have the same 5.5 liter V10 but after a review on the turbo’s and use of direct-injection the V10 should have an output of 550 bhp, or even more!
The facelift of the 5-series will be in the showrooms in 2010 so it will be about a year later untill we see the new M5…To be clear, the M5 in the picture is the current model…
