This is the more important upcoming car, in my opinion; the rumored M550d xDrive. Has anyone out there put these power and torque numbers through a simulator yet? I am curious on highway fuel economy, 0-60 mi/h, and 1/4 mi numbers. Based on a current 550i xDrive, assuming same weight and ZF 8 speed, I wonder what this car is capable of? You have to assume of course that the advertised 400 hp in the 4.4 L TT V8 is a lower than reality number.

High 4 s 0-60 mi/h and maybe mid-30 mi/gal highway? That would be nice.
