The worlds one and only Twin Turbocharged M5.
One would have thought that 508bhp was more than enough for this 4-door monster, but Currency Motor Cars (CNC), have ingeniously placed not one but two turbochargers at the rear-end of the car.

Press release:
Currency Motor Cars is proud to introduce the first of an unprecedented line of supercars. This flagship model is an ingeniously modified 2006 BMW M5 that can reach a top speed of 240 mph. This makes it the fastest, most powerful luxury 4-door sedan on the planet. CMC co-founder, Ron Cash, has brilliantly outfitted BMW’s compression V-10 engine with twin-turbo chargers and a custom inter-cooler system to kick out an astonishing 800+ horses. No one in the world has been able to achieve this...until now.

This is the only car of its kind.

The mind-boggling power of this vehicle is complimented by the exquisite alterations of it's interior. The leather in the steering wheel, arm rests and dash is the same as the leather in the seats. Fully aniline dyed Florida alligator in black. Only the finest suede and leathers have been used, much like the old Delahaye and Bugatti roadsters in the 1930's. This custom interior is all meticulously hand stitched, designed and installed by Judy Amic-Angelo, one of the the most respected product designers in the country.

wondering why is the turbo put at the rear and the long piping to bring compressed air back to the front intake...maybe not want to disturb the compression ratio while giving it some minor boost...just my thought while viewing it...

How do you put that much torque into the tyres to make the car move? The traction control will go crazy.

Just like the Brabus SLK god-knows-what model. 800+pounds of torque and the traction control can't handle it and goes psycho when flooring it.
