Such a wonderfully elegant car. I feel that it still looks very nice now. It has that subtle, understated elegance. Not loud, but still exudes good taste. ↡ Advertisement 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clean line, symmetrical looks to make it very pleasant. Everything is very proportional which make it looks good. I agree, Like the Honda NSX. If we look back today, it is still a good modern looking car. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the name doesn’t ring a bell, his previous employer surely will as Taylor was the design boss of – you guessed it, Rolls Royce. Looks like there is a fine line between a copy, and a production that is heavily influenced by the same designer! 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carbon82 Moderator June 12 Author Share June 12 516i coming soon @Inlinefour ... Honestly what's the point since it will still be in Cat B. But barring the unknown, just like C&C brought in the E180, it may make it way here. 2024 BMW 5 Series Gets Tiny 1.6-Liter Engine In Turkey While the 520i we’re all familiar with has a 2.0-liter unit, the latest 5 Series sold in Turkey has a smaller 1.6-liter engine. It would’ve made sense to call it a 516i but the less prestigious badging might’ve alienated buyers. The downgraded powertrain has a mild-hybrid setup and produces 190 horsepower. Maximum torque is rated at 310 Nm (229 lb-ft), enough for a 0 to 62 mph (100 km/h) in 7.9 seconds. 2 1 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

E180 has a 1.5T (154 horsepower) engine, even smaller and less powerful than the entry level 5 series. To be fair, the performance figures of the 1.6 sump is respectable and a 7.9 sec century sprint is even faster than our 520i (8.1 sec) & just 0.4 sec shy of the current E200 (7.5 sec). If BMW decided to name it 520i ED (just like the F30 3 series), it will not put the driver to shame during traffic light sprint. 1 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Small Engine,Big Body,use the Car for Traffic Light Sprint or going very high speed like often NSHW Run,will ''Stress'' the Engine & cause it to fail Premature. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
