Twin Turbo V8 BMW X5 Shows Off Its New Nose

Looks like the boys over at Jalopnik just snagged some sweet shots of the 2010 BMW X5 and it's new nose. Crazy they aren't going to be giving it an "M".

Looks like a slightly updated Audi in behind. Funny how they are going for the same look in the air intakes.

Power output of "run-of-the-mill" luxury V8s are getting to high 300s and low 400s. While 408hp is at the upper end of that spectrum, it's not enough to justify an M for a vehicle that has a V8 option already.

The ML63 has 500+hp, so my guess is an M, if one shows up, will likely get the V10 from the M5/M6.
