Fake news. Strictly marketing. Same motor, same horsepower, more weight.

Why surprised? It’s an 8 series and the M5 is a 5 series. Of course bmw will want the higher series to produce more power. It’s like comparing a Camaro to a corvette, the corvette is always going to be more powerful as it is the higher model.

Yes. Not sure if I will yet since the RS7 is calling to me (literally, I see and hear it in my dreams).
