2008 BMW M5 - Gran Turismo 5 Photos

Here is a 2008 BMW M5 sedan of the Gran Turismo 5 fame.


Wearing a splendid coat of Alpinweiss.





The 4th generation M5 is a monster saloon that easily exceeds 300 km/h."
The BMW M5 based on the S-generation E60 5 Series, first appeared in March 2004 at the Geneva Motor Show. Details were shrouded in secrecy at first, but BMW revealed the whole package around the time of the Paris Motor Show that September.
Drawing the most interest was the engine, a 5.0-liter V-10. It featured a 90-degree bank angle and a high strength cast-iron crankshaft, supported by six bearings for extra structural strength housed in a lightweight aluminum crankcase. It incorporated BMW's double-VANOS system, a mechanism that independently varied the valve timing of both the intake and exhaust valves. Each cylinder had its own throttle body with variable throttle valves. The result was 500 HP/7750 rpm and 384.0 lb-ft of torque. The close proximity of peak power delivery to the rev limit of 8250 rpm meant that the power plant constantly produced power all the way to the redline. The 1755 kg car ran from zero to 62 mph in a scant 4.7 seconds and boaster a top speed of 205 mph (with the 155 mph restrictor removed). 
The gearbox was also noteworthy in that it was the company's all new 7-speed SMG. Besides launch control, the transmission also featured six manual and five automatic shift modes, each with their own shift speed and response, allowing finer control in a variety of driving conditions. 
Introduced to the European market in January 2005, the M5 represented ultimate sports sedan of the 21st century.

2000 TVR Tuscan Speed 6 - Gran Turismo 5

Here is a 2000 TVR Tuscan Speed 6 in Gran Turismo 5 photography.



"

A unique coupe that brings a classic sportscar drive feel to the present."

TVR, a name derived from the first name of founder Trevor Wilkinson, is noted for making high-performance specialty cars, British coachworks style.
The company's first production car, the Grantura, made its debut in 1958, and features the skillful combination of components from existing production cars such as Volkswagens and Austin Healeys, wrapped in a sporty, head-turning body style.
Another model was the Tuscan that, despite its racing struggles in the 1960s, was resurrected in 2000, armed with a bevy of new features. The 2-seat 2-door car didn't look at all like its predecessor and had a detachable roof, making it look as good a convertible as it did a coupe.
Its eye-catching exterior, highlighted by a wild face, makes the car look big but in fact, the car possessed modest dimensions. It had overall length, width, and height at 166.7 inches, 71.2 inches, and 47.2 inches, respectively. The wheelbase stretches to 92.9 inches. The Speed 6 got its name from the number of cylinders in the engine.
Two inline-6s are available; one a 3.6-liter, the other a 4.0-liter model. The latter featured the day's racing technologies, including dry sump lubrication. Output was rated at 360 BHP and 310.0 lb-ft of torque, and when this power was coupled with the car's lean 1100 kg body, the Speed 6's acceleration was impressive to say the least. It sprinted to 62 mph in less than 4.0 seconds, making it one of the quickest cars of its day.
