By the time G-Power had fitted coilover suspension and dropped the ride height by 30mm the X6 M had a noticeably more purposeful stance than usual. Limited to just five units, the €675,000 (plus local taxes) X6 M Typhoon RS V10 had a top speed of 206mph, whereas the Typhoon could manage no more than a rather embarrassing 190mph or so both cars had an identical 0-62mph (0-100km/h) time of 4.2 seconds, with the Typhoon RS V10 claimed to be able to despatch the 0-124mph (0-200km/h) dash in less than 13 seconds.Īs the pictures show, the Typhoon was happy to shout about its abilities, with 23-inch wheels fitted as standard, along with a wide-arch bodykit that increased the BMW's width by 7cm. The Typhoon RS V10's maximum torque figure was 640lb ft at 6800rpm. Peak torque for the Typhoon was pegged at 655lb ft at just 1500rpm, but for those who wanted more this could be boosted to 737lb ft (1000Nm) – although a stronger gearbox had to be fitted if this box was ticked.

While the regular X6 M Typhoon got that 715bhp rating, for those who wanted more there was the G-Power Typhoon RS V10, with a twin-supercharged 5.5-litre V10 engine rated at a frankly ludicrous 888bhp. In standard form the first-generation (E71) BMW X6M was barking mad with its 547bhp twin-turbo 4.4-litre V8 engine, but by the time G-Power had done its stuff there was a minimum of 715bhp on tap. In 2011, if you wanted to give a Green palpitations, you needed to order one of the newly introduced G-Power Typhoons, based on the BMW X6 M and one of the least socially aware cars ever devised.
