The German tuning company Lumma Design has announced their own version of the sport sedan BMW M5, which was created specially for the demonstration at the auto show in Geneva. This car even got the new name - CLR 500 R-S, but it is still unknown if the car will be launched into the serial production.

The developed version of BMW M5 is equipped with a supercharged V10. Due to the new block of engine control and exhaust system with a sport catalyst, the power of the engine increased from 507 to 560 hp. Moreover after taking off the electronic speed limiter, the top speed is 327 kmph.

The new CLR 500 R-S is by 5 cm wider than M5. It also has a unique aerodynamic body kit with wide wheel arches, new front bumper, a run-out in a back bumper and exclusive Lamborghini-like orange coloring. The cowling, root cover and the roof are made from carbon, which made the car lighter. The exhaust system got two new pipes 155 mm each, which are integrated into the back bumper.
