It’s been a while since we’ve seen a G-Power tuning project, however new records have been set with the release of the four door BMW M5 Hurricane RR. At the track the car was able to reach an amazing 372 km/h, with a 0 to 100 k/h time of just 4.35 seconds. Contributing to the world’s fastest sedan title is a redesigned twin supercharger system consisting of ASAT1-316 units, and new internals for the 10-cylinder powerplant. G-Power used the precisely balanced and lightweight MAHLE forged pistons to give them lower compression while improving strength. The result is 800 horsepower and 800 Nm of torque after a final ECU remap to the BMW M5 Hurricane RR.

Here we have a Lumma Design BMW M5 that was spotted in Dubai outside the Dubai Mall. You may be thinking, overkill? Sure it looks impressive from the outside, but the blinding orange paint would get old after a week or so. Well the matte black stripes look pretty decent for a start, but the new bonnet vents are not the most appealing BMW M5 pieces we’ve seen. So, what exactly makes this BMW M5 CLR 500 RS overkill? Check out the over the top interior and tell me what you think. Carbon fiber is pleasant, but there comes a point where you have to say, “that’s enough.”

Here we have a BMW M5 modified by the tuning firm Lumma Design, in collaboration with the popular BMW tuners G-Power and they named it the Lumma CLR RS. Both tuning companies were able to increase the performance significantly, with final numbers showing 730 hp and 700 Nm of torque. The M5 is able to accelerate from 0-100 km/h in just 4.2 seconds, reach 200 km/h in 10 seconds, and 300 km/h in 29.5 seconds. An astounding top speed number for the Lumma Design BMW M5 CLR RS shows it is capable of 367.4 km/h. These impressive figures are from a G-Power compressor system with ASA radial compressor, new exhaust system with 105 mm exhaust pipes, and 100 cells racing catalysts.

Wald International has developed a new styling kit for the BMW 5-series (E60) models and the pictures here show the BMW M5 Sports Line Edition. The new package consists of a front bumper, low profile trunk mounted spoiler, rear bumper, and aerodynamic door mirrors. Underneath the BMW is a four pipe DTM exhaust system and the car rides on Mahora wheels. The rims are available in either 19 or 20 inches and come with high performance tires which improve handling on the BMW M5. Wald International Marketing Director, Shuichi Miwa, announced that several inquiries for this body kit have been received, however pricing has yet to be determined by Wald.

When we reffer to a BMW “M” series we know that the car is a sporting luxury one made by the best BMW engineers. Owning a car like this one is probably a dream for each of us and even though the price is a bit high, it’s surely worth every penny. The BMW M5 has one of the most powerful engines of 2006, an engine that could reach over 500 HP at 7,750 rpm. Even though the car’s really beautiful from stock, the guys from G-Power thought it could use their touch. They tried to make the car’s exterior more stylish and added a lot of carbon fiber elements that would also make that lighter. New front bumper is really elegant, side skirts match the car’s design perfectly and in the rear part a new rear bumper that includes a diffuser improving air low under the car. [click to continue…]
