BMW M7

According to a report from AutoBild.de BMW has given the M7 the green light. According to the report the new full sized luxury performance car will be available for model year 2017, probably debuting in 2016.

The M7 is rumored to have a V12 engine under the hood which will provide it with plenty of power. Just how much? Well, enough for it to pass all but the fastest sports cars on the road.

That V12 engine is rumored to pump out 625 horsepower and peak torque is said to be 640 pound-feet. All this power should result in a 0-60 mph time of about 4 seconds (not bad at all for such a heavy machine).

Top speed is thought to be limited at 155 mph, but it should get there plenty quick. Obviously, it will be a thirsty machine so expect a gas tax added on to the rumored $155,000 starting price.
