(I do hope it comes too....if it's up to par....but at this point it has mythical status. )
i found it funny too. all i said was i pray for a gsf as well and then.... man...

if i remember from reading the spec, redline is 7400rpm. that's higher than i thought already, good!

the side grille is something i really don't like on the f10 m5, looks weird (really stick on)

two videos. seems like the new m5 with the tt v8 sounds a lot deeper and more meaty. in some way, i definitely miss the screaming e60 v10

I like the fact they cannot stop smiling in the second video

Sounds like the engine changes pitch (higher) at about 4000 then 6000 rpm? Variable intakes?

The exterior looks awesome while I still can't believe people still pay that much for a car with an ok interior.

Default Toyota NS4 Hybrid

Have you guys seen this. It's the new NS4 model from Toyota. The NS4 is a Plug-In Hybrid concept vehicle, which is an even 'greener' environment friendly vehicle. It's debuting at next week's NAIAS auto show (during Toyota’s news conference on Tuesday, January 10 at 8:45 AM). Check out the TEASER video below.
