TT V8 is for performance X5. X6 has to be more powerful.

Wow TT V10! Didn't expect that so soon. I thought it would have been a modified TT V8. I assumed they wouldn't go with a NA V10.

They already have the updated N54 engine for new 7-series with 326 HP. Imagine the X6 35i with 326 hp.

Is that engine eventually going to be put in the 335i and 535i? Also, it may have been a rumor, but I have heard that the current tt 6 cylinder actually puts out closer to 320 hp than BMW's 300 hp estimate anyway.

Next M5 is suppose to have a TT V10, so it may well get that engine, though I don't know how it'll sell with the current economic downturn and price of oil/gas.
