			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>The 2012 BMW M5</strong> is one concept car that has been unleashed in Shanghai and certain details of it were leaked in order to render the car enthusiast a first sneak peak into the vehicle. The images of the car reveal that it is one of the best looking cars to have been launched by BMW ever since the introduction of the BMW E39 M5.  It is anticipated that this car is a blend of good looks and tough performance.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/Official-2012-BMW-M5-Concept-Photos-Front-View.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1619" src="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/Official-2012-BMW-M5-Concept-Photos-Front-View.jpg" alt="&quot;The 2012 BMW M5 Concept&quot;" width="600" height="425" /></a></p>
<p>When it comes to the style of the car this concept version is one that adopts a few cues from the smaller version of the M3 stablemate. The car model is one that sports an air dam that is a trapezoidal one in the front of the bumper that is flanked by big intakes. On either side of the small diffuser there are dual tailpipe tips in each corner at the rear end of the car. There were certain rumors that the concept would be different from the production version in terms of wheels.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/inside-2012-bmw-m5.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1620" src="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/inside-2012-bmw-m5.jpg" alt="&quot;The 2012 BMW M5 Concept&quot;" width="600" height="367" /></a></p>
<p>It was stated that the production version of the car would have black wheels. Reports released in Germany revealed that the concept car and the production car are alike and it will not sport black wheels as reported. The car is one that will sport a V8 twin turbo engine and this is sure to out power the one that is currently present in the X6M. This means that the car driver is going to get 546 HP along with a DCT that is a seven speed one.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/5.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1621" src="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/5.jpg" alt="&quot;The 2012 BMW M5 Concept&quot;" width="600" height="398" /></a></p>
<p>The novel M5 is will also receive the M division upgrades along with brake and suspension upgrades. The car will also receive a novel Active M designed to give optimal stability to the car via the torque locking in between the drive wheels.</p>

<p>With its latest creation, the CLR 730 RS, it seems that Lumma Design is making a play for the title of Europe&#8217;s most garish tuner. However, this two-tone widebody BMW M5 is actually subtle compared to previous Lumma Design models, and we think the title still firmly remains with Mansory.</p>
<p>So what&#8217;s special about the CLR 730 RS? For starters, 730 horsepower. The 50% increase in chutzpah comes from a set of twin-superchargers courtesy of G-Power, and Lumma Design claims an impressive top speed of 228 mph. Additional performance upgrades come in the form of a sport suspension, six-piston front and four-piston rear brakes, and an upgraded exhaust system.</p>
<p>The candy cane interior of the CLR 730 RS is even more over-the-top than the outside, with a combination of carbon fiber, leather, and suede. It&#8217;s not really our style, but we would probably be more accepting of it in a more subtle color. We have plenty of high-res photos in the gallery below, and Lumma Design&#8217;s press release has full details after the jump.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Yesterday the Bavarian company BMW introduced a special ultra-lightweight version of the model M5, which is built in a single copy on the occasion of 25th anniversary of the first car BMW M5.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
The car was shown at the legendary Nürburgring, which is ideal for the official debut of the BMW M5 CSL, which is precisely designed to ride on the circuit.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
The model, built on the M5, is equipped with a modified engine, which, having fine-tuning in the sports department of BMW M, has increased its size from 5 to 5.5 liters and became more powerful. Bavarian concern has not disclosed the official figures yet, but one of the leaders of the court atelier tuning BMW Albrecht Biermann noted that the horsepower is about 580 hp and the vehicle has 540 Nm of torque.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1006" title="M5-1" src="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/M5-1.jpg" alt="M5-1" width="490" height="324" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">For comparison, 5-liter BMW M5 returns only 407 hp and 470 Nm moment.  The 580  unit is paired with a seven-transmission with dual-clutch, which is borrowed from the BMW M3.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1007" title="M5-2" src="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/M5-2.jpg" alt="M5-2" width="490" height="324" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
In addition, engineers from BMW M managed to reduce the weight of the vehicle up to 1830 kg, using some parts of the body, made of carbon fiber, the rear seats were removed from the cabin and new front seat of an ultra-light material were installed.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1008" title="M5-3" src="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/M5-3.jpg" alt="M5-3" width="490" height="324" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
Dynamics of a lightweight version of the BMW M5 is kept a secret, but Albrecht Biermann said that the new product is much faster than the standard versions of M5, because the model passes one circle at the Nurburgring in less than 8 minutes, improving the usual BMW M5 by nearly 20 seconds.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1009" title="M5-4" src="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/M5-4.jpg" alt="M5-4" width="490" height="324" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
&#8220;Today we are already in full working on next-generation BMW M5” – said Biermann. According to him they enjoyed when it was created, but the company&#8217;s plans do not include to produce the lightweight versions of M5.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1010" title="M5-5" src="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/M5-5.jpg" alt="M5-5" width="490" height="324" /></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-577" title="bmw-kers" src="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/bmw-kers-300x240.jpg" alt="bmw-kers" width="300" height="240" />BMW engineers have begun creating a new generation BMW M5 &#8211; this updated version of the  M5 promises to surprise the customers not only with an engine capacity of about 550-600 hp (it would probably not have 10 &#8211; and 8-cylinder, but will be equipped with the turbo engine).</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">According to preliminary data, the new BMW M5 will be different from all other cars by the system energy recovery KERS, which is already used in Formula 1. So far, no production model has received such a system (even in the Formula-1 KERS does not use all the commands &#8211; some engineers have put into question the effectiveness of KERS). It is expected that this system will, if necessary “throw” just about 80 additional horsepower.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In addition, it can be noted that BMW M5 will be equipped with the stop-start system, which will muffle the engine at a red light, and automatically start it as soon as the driver presses on the gas pedal. According to the BMW officials, due to this the vehicle will be able to reduce fuel consumption.</p>
