    If anyone in the US is interested in the CSi, it could be imported at reasonable cost. Contact me offline.

    Of course, you'd have to get over the hurdle of the sales price first.....

    Why would our friends in Munchen have used the old 4.0 liter m60 engine in 1996 when the improved M62 was available - especially in such heavy cars as ours?

    There really is little difference between the M60 and the M70 i assume that maybe why the M73 came along since the M62 may have started to eclipse the M70 in performance

    m60 286hp 400nm M70 295hp 450nm
    a little less performance but it is not a yawning gap coupled with less weight and better fuel economy it does make some sense although i think an M70 with about 350hp would have been better and an M or csi model with 450hp even more sense
