OK, let's get serious then..... Here are 2 pics of the X6 that I took at the Detroit Autoshow. It is the N64 V8TT.

Notice the reversed heads, the exhaust ports / turbos are up top.

It looks like an emissions test to me....what are your other thoughts?

oh damn...turbos on top? that might be what theyre testing then...im almost sure those are turbo pipes...more than likely measuring emissions..waste maybe

but damn turbos on top....the bay is gonna be hot!...dont open up the hood after use ....theyre gonna have a huge warning on top of the engine...warning if you touch you WILL melt...stay the fuck back
