Default This is all good news...

I believe the new 550i's are around 5.2 sec or so....

EDIT: actually it does have a weight advantage....as little as a 100lbs to around 250+.
and now there is a timeframe next Spring for the GS460, It should have low 5's in the 0-60 sprint. The GS350 should be in the 5.8 sec. range. RWD. I am so relieved that we are finally hearing about the GS460 in the press.

I think the GS350 is around 5.5s, while the BMW 550i is 5.4s. I don't know how fast the GS460 will be, but it better be around the low 5s or high 4s...heh ...Oh well I will just wait for my GS450h...
