She told me that he planned ship date for US is late September. Dealers should have or are shortly recieving notices. She made it a point ot say that it is a planned date because just as the M5 had a planned date, it was delayed slightly. She also said to expect the cabrio about a year later. As for the sedan, but there is no definate answer to if BMW will even release it. Based on the testing conducted BMW will have a clearer idea 4 to 6 months from now. IF it does get approved for production there is a good chance it will be release a year after the Cabrio's release.

She mentioned that it will be a v8 400hp I asked her if it will be in the 400 range and she said it is a 400hp v8.

As for the individual series options/colors, the only car available with individual accents in the US is the 7series. I asked her if one chooses to do ED if they can get those options and she said no.

Just a little hear say from my end.

400 hp ....
wat do u guys think
