New M5 engine
I know a lot has been said about the new M5 and especially its engine... but one fact i cannot find: the difference in weight between the V8 of the old M5 (E39) and the V10 of the new M5 (E60)!
Can anyone help me with this?
PS: its something like 1 or 10 kg's heavier... but i need to know exactly!

i think one of the main accomplishements was that it was the same size engine, but 10 cylinders, and the exact same weight

tHE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE WEIGHT ISNT EVEN 1KG THE TECHNICIANS OF THE M5 ENGINE WERE VERY GOOD ABOUT THE WEIGHT.

i don't think it that much heavier but the new V10 pumps out a ton of horsepower, coming in a 507 hp. quite amazing in a sedan. what is the difference between BHP and HP. is there any difference? and i know that the B in BHP stands for brake but that mean anything different than just plain HP?
