While BMW's M Division unveiled the new-generation M5, tuners keep upgrading its predecessor. In this instance, the business super sedan has tapped into its hyper side courtesy of G-Power.
Mind you, it wasn't in the regular configuration when it rolled off the line, as you are looking at the ultra-hot BMW M5 CS. As a result, it came with 626 horsepower (635 ps/467 kW) and 553 pound-foot (750 Nm) of torque from its twin-turbo 4.4L V8. It had a 190 mph (306 kph) top speed and a 3-second 0-62 mph (0-100 kph) time.
The one pictured above is far quicker. It probably needs some 2.7 or 2.8 seconds to reach 62 mph, as G-Power has unlocked no fewer than 887 hp (900 ps/662 kW) and 774 pound-foot (1,050 Nm) of torque. We can't place our finger on the new sprint time, as G-Power hasn't mentioned it at all, neither in the social media post embedded below nor on its website.
Did you think this is the tuner's top proposal for the BMW M5 CS? Well, it's not. G-Power can unleash no fewer than 986 hp (1,000 ps/736 kW) and 811 pound-feet (1,100 Nm) of torque. This places the business sedan in the same league as the original Bugatti Chiron, and due to the extra oomph, it is almost as fast as the Chiron in a straight-line sprint (up to a point, anyway).

G-Power also has your back with lesser oily upgrades for this fabulous machine, which can enjoy 808 hp (820 ps/603 kW) from its massaged twin-turbo V8, 769 hp (780 ps/574 kW), or 730 hp (740 ps/544 kW). The most humble upgrade puts out 690 hp (700 ps/515 kW). And don't ask about the Benjamins, as the top-spec will set you back about as much as a BMW M3.
The tuner's portfolio includes other components for the BMW M5 CS. This one features a vented carbon fiber hood and a large wing mounted on the trunk lid. The rear diffuser and front apron seem to be stock, and the same goes for the discreet spoiler at the back. G-Power's logo has replaced the BMW roundels, and the Hurricane RR logo has replaced the M5 CS badge.
It sports a satin green look on the outside with the usual black touches, rides on bronze five double-spoke alloys, reveals its name on the front doors, and has a mix of black and red leather upholstery on the inside. G-Power has also left its mark on the exhaust tips before calling it a day.
If it weren't for that OTT hood or the large rear wing, it would've been a dream build, but even so, the Hurricane RR is not bad at all. Nice job, G-Power!
