810bhp BMW V10 M5 by Currency Motor Cars
The World’s Only Turbocharged V10 M5

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 Crocodile 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.

whoa there, not so fast gentleman. I have been reading about this Car extensively on the M5board and there is an extremely long thread about the so-called 'Currency motors' and the people behind it. There have been several bad experiences with the owners of the above mentioned and apparently they have been having several problems with the TT M5. One of the directors of the company goes by the name "Osh" and is rumoured to have duped several ppl on the M5 board and messing up their cars furthermore rather then modifying them. His previous company goes by the name RMS motorsport. Just do a search on the M5board for "RMS" and you will see what i mean. There are countless threas explaining bad experiences encountered wit the 'Osh" character and his company. I however have no idea about how true the stories are as i have no personal experience whatsoever.....

You call this taste Vab?

Kowalski · 03-19-2007, 10:04 PM

That interior is absolutely disgusting.

Give me the original M5 over this thing, at any day.

BMW Power · 03-20-2007, 04:11 AM

the best part is that of the 350K price tag, 100K is for pimping the interior....

100K!!? ***?

Mirage77 · 03-20-2007, 04:31 AM

Oh my goodness... Terrible.

Mikael · 03-20-2007, 09:02 AM

The steering wheel alone makes me puke. Another example that you can spend 350K on absolute rubbish.

monaroCountry · 03-20-2007, 10:20 PM

I really dont like the interior, poor crocs

too crocodile dundee for my liking. I would much prefer the OEM M5 interior.........

Excellent car with an excellent motor, BUT the modifications seems second rate. Definately not worth the asking price.

Compare Currency Motors mods to that of Australias own Street Tuna of LS1turbo fame (a much smaller operation with a far cheaper TT kit).

Currency Motors

Street Tuna's GenTTR kit
