I was under the impression that BMWs 1st generation 5.0L V12 wasn't the best... I mean two valves per cylinder etc, etc.

Am I wrong??
That might be true, but when you simply consider the fact that you have a 5 litre V12 under the hood, minor details don't matter much. It's still 300 what not horse power [wave] . ENgine was from E32..

I heard a rumor that if the owner can get this car sold, he's getting an E38 750, strocking it to 6 litres and adding FI [thumb] [driving2]

Oh my god!! What the hell is that pink POS suppose to be? It sure the hell is not a BMW and frankly I find it highly offensive to even see being imitated in that fashion. That car is an abomination to the BMW world. The creator should be shot.....

Could not agree more

Also, in the most viewed section, where did they get that little spray bottle to put next to that model of a 360 modena?
or am I just seeing things

You mean the yellow spyder? That's a real car, the bottle is for cleaning the car and its there because the pics were taken the day before the show opened, so everyone was still working on their cars.

Sorry for being so harsh in my last post. I still find the car very un-BMW, but I do realize the time and money spent on creating (if that is what you want to call it) a vehicle of its kind. My comment of the owner was out-of-line and is not what I really feel should happen. I do wonder why, but do respect the time and effort put forth.

P.S. ///Mikko, that looked like a really cool car show. Did you have your car on show? That Supra is wicked.... Love all of the Ferrari's

Dude that "550" is really freaking hot. Any 0-60 or 1/4 mile specs?
Not that I know of, still winter over here. Maybe next summer, if he still has the car [;)] . And it still a V12, not really the number one performance engine [rofl]

Here's his own web page of the process, it's all Finnish but there are some very disturbing photos [screwy] [rofl] [screwy] [rofl] link
