The Exterior of the BMW M5

The BMW M5 possesses the performance of a sports car and a body sort of a sedan or a saloon. The E28 version of the M5, which was produced in 1985 up to 1988, was by hand built by motorsport technicians. It was considered as the quickest production sedan in the world. Both left hand and right hand drive versions of the M5 was provided together with north american Specs version and South African specs version.

The E34 version of the M5 was also entirely hand built by either a team or just one of M workers. The M5 also had a singular road wheel design that was branded as surprising by others. The wheels of the M5 also came up with bolted-on wheel covers which had 5 spoke amalgamate wheels under it. The wheel cover went into a revamp later after folk regarded it as having'white-wall' tires.

The E39 M5 on the other hand, wasn't built by hand anymore. During its release, competing brands also released vehicles with relatively stronger engine. The E93 version of the M5 had 3 updates before it ended production in 2003.

The E60 version of the M5 was introduced in 2005. It uses individual throttle bodies in each of its cylinder to dispose of the throttle plate. This version of the M5 which is still in continuous production makes use of a 7-speed semi automatic transmission and a stiffened aluminum chassis. A touring body kind of the M5 was released in 2007 and is still ceaselessly produced right now.

The exterior of the M5 shows its strong performance. From each detail like the chrome plated chrome steel exhaust and the bonnet which holds impressive curves. The inside of the M5 also guarantees comfort and elegance all in one with the use of opulent merino leather and a sports style multi function steering wheel. The instrument panels also seem to become illuminated with the red needles and white scales present.

The 2010 Lexus LF-A

It's finally official! The Lexus LF-A has just made its world debut at the 2009 Tokyo Motor Show. The Toyota built super car will be limited to a production run of only 500 units, each priced at $375,000. The Japanese luxury automaker is already taking orders, however the first deliveries won't be made until early 2011.

As you might already know, the LF-A is powered by a 4.8 liter V10 that delivers a maximum output of 560 HP at 9,000 RPM and a peak torque of 354 lb-ft at 6,800 RPM, with 90% of the total torque being available between the 3,700 RPM mark and the super car's 9,000 RPM red line. As a result of such a road torque curve, the LF-A can sprint from 0 to 60 MPH in just 3.7 seconds and won't stop until it reaches a top speed of 202 MPH.

In order to ensure that the LF-A handles as well as it goes in a straight line, the Lexus design team incorporated lightweight materials like aluminum alloys, magnesium alloys and titanium alloys as well as some carbon fiber to ensure that the LF-A is as rigid as possible while maintaining a low curb weight. Even the new super car's power plant is compact in size, smaller than a conventional V8, which allowed the Toyota engineers to design the LF-A with the optimal weight distribution and an exceptional power to weight ratio. Thus giving Nissan and their GT-R super car something to watch out for.

Convertible Toyobaru FT-86 in the works

In news that will only shock those that haven't been paying attention, Toyota has reportedly confirmed that if the market demands it, there will be a convertible version of the new FT-86. Though Toyota still hasn't settled on a name for the upcoming budget rear-drive sports car, the announcement of a drop-top option lends a bit more credence to the rumor that the Celica nameplate might be brought back from the dead.

Now, the notion of a convertible Celica really shouldn't shock anyone. However, what should shock you (at least a little) is the possibility of convertible Subaru. Because, besides a few one-offs and at least one was-never-going-to-see-the-light-of-day concept, Subaru has never built a convertible. And of course, this means that the very real possibility of an all-wheel drive, 300+ horsepower, 300+ lb-ft. of torque, six-speed manual Subaru roadster exists
