just curious to see what y'all think?? Personally..... well i'm not sure yet, pictures have a habit of not telling the whole truth, but i quite like and i'm sure it will grow on me. But by the sounds of the technology looks like the 5 series is going to take back the worlds best car award :) :uh-huh:

oh yeah, piccies for those that can't be bothered going to the site:

definitely see the old 5 series in it, and at the moment i prefer the current shape, but i guess i do need to see one of these in the flesh tho.

cheers.

oh yeah for sure, M5 does make things A LOT more interesting, word of a 5.5ltr V10 (i'm sure a very strong F1 connection there) with aboot 368Kw's or aboot 500 horsies, yeah, i think that sounds ok :(:D:D:D:D :uh-huh:

gotta agree, current model does look much better (looks better sitting in the garage too :)) but i'm gonna have to see one for real to make my final opinion.

now that would rock silver, F1 V10, 19,000rpm.... ooooo baby.... :uh-huh:

    • You are correct, the earlier the torque, the earlier things snap
    • Gents, it will be getting the MX5 Mania kit and the 2.5 will be staying where it is My query was about the 0.64 or the 0.86, whilst the 0.64 might spool a bit faster, would the 0.86 be better IRT EGT and mechanical sympathy, with only a small difference in spool And as I assume I won't need alot of boost to get to 200kw, probably around 10 psi, and with max rpm at 6500, would high EGT even really be a issue with a 0.64 I'm heading into MX5 Mania at the end of Jan to discuss the install, so any info is welcome prior to that Basically have a chat and book a time so they can throw on the turbo kit, and fit a oil cooler with a thermostat, drive in drive out of course  In other news: just finished cleaning the car inside and out, it's now all ready to get covered in bugs and dirt driving to Goulburn tomorrow to lunch,  and go for a stroll along woolondilly River with the daughter and her boy, and of course, visit my grandcats and my new grandpuppy 
    • Sounds like it has an actual problem with mode select doors, or something.
    • Hope your all having a mean Xmas! If anyone happens to know any trick to using the insanely complex climate control system, I cannot get it to not be on dual zone no matter how many times I deselect it (will say it's not but both vents blow different temps). Also one side is always hot, one always cold 🤷
    • I'd be looking at the mentioned EFR kit, room to turn it up if decide on e85 (which we know you will) and be super responsive and fun on the street.
