Sometimes it is rather pointless to post a video on an American based automotive site in the German language – I am guilty of it at times. Even though I do speak some German, the majority of Americans may not understand a lick of what the German engineers at BMW are saying when they are testing the new upcoming BMW M5 as in the video below.

Take one BMW M5 Touring, the station wagon variant of the BMW M5 that we can’t even get in the States, drop it off at G-Power in Aresing, Germany and leave behind a bag full of cash. Wait a few weeks for a phone call, and if you’re one of the lucky 1,025 customers first in the door, you’ll end up with what’s likely to be the world’s fastest station wagon. How fast is it? Try zero to sixty in under 4.5 seconds and a top speed (electronically limited) of over 223 miles per hour. Still not impressed? The two ton wagon will hit 124 miles per hour in under ten seconds, or about the same time it takes most wagons to hit 60. Nothing that big should move that fast. Read more

When I think of propane gas, I think of my Weber barbecue grill, or maybe even my vertical smoker. I don’t think of 660 horsepower Bavarian übersedans that can get me to sixty miles per hour in less than 5 seconds, on the way to a top speed of 201 miles per hour. If the mad scientists at Germany’s G-Power have any say on the matter, my perspective on LPG powered cars is about to change. Read more
