New BMW 2012 M5 Saloon at The Goodwood Festival of Speed

The all-new 2012 BMW M5 sports sedan will be making its first public appearance at The Goodwood Festival of Speed, which takes place in the UK between July 1 and 3, the German automaker announced today.
The most powerful production version of the M5 series to date comes with a high-revving 4.4-liter turbocharged V8 pumping out 560hp from 5,750-7,000rpm and 680Nm [501.5 lb-ft] of torque from 1,500rpm. It goes on sale this fall.
The M5 will go on show at the BMW pavilion alongside an array of production and racing cars from Bavarian manufacturer’s past and present such as the new 1 M Coupe, a 328 roadster from 1936 and a special M1 Turbo Concept created for the 1972 Summer Olympics in Munich.
A selection of BMW cars including the V8-powered Z4 GT3 and M3 Group A DTM racers and the series production M3 GTS will also race against the clock on the famous Goodwood 1.16 mile hill climb.
