Hello Gents & ladies,

I've just picked up an official brochure from my BMW dealer in Amsterdam. Netherlands

The specs are:

6 speed gear box
225/45 ZR 18 front wheels
225/40 ZR 18 Rear wheels

inline 6 engine
3245 cm3 capacity
252 KW @ 7900 rpm
365 Nm " 4900

top speed 250km p/h (limited)
0-100 km/h <5.3 seconds

the brochure shows a type of mustard yello M3...

This will be the EURO set up, it's offical, as they are giving brochures out, willing to take orders, but NO specific date of release, rumours are October.

The 330i engine is being released 1st June in Holland

The X5 3.0i released 27/5 in Germany

A new 330d will come in october, very good specis (I know you guys are not too keen on Turbo diesels in the states)

but the new engine (currently in the 730d) will have 193bhp and 410Nm at 1750 to 3500 rpm

one hell of a pull from 60-120 km p/h

ok anymore info from my dealer I'll post it

have a nice weekend

Owen
