I know its going to have the old M5 V-8 in it pushing close to 400 horses. I cant wait to take one of these around Mulhulland.

Wrong on all counts.

-The 4 door is not out, and still isn't greenlighted at this moment, meaning they're not sure they want to proceed with anything besides a coupe (which will come first either way).

-The coupe and convertible are approximately 18 months away from arriving in customer hands from today.

-They'll both be using a newly developed 4.0L V8 engine producing around 400hp, not the old M5's powerplant.

-The picture you posted is a photoshop done by a magazine intern who has not seen the car, nor any mules. It's a fantasy.

Regardless, you got the broad strokes right, going to be a fine car for that price bracket.
