2012 Lexus GS-F to get 500 HP V10: BMW M5 watch out

The Lexus GS-F which will be out in 2012 will have a beast of an engine the 500 HP V10; it seems as if Toyota want to take on the BMW M5. This is only a rumor though so do not read too much in but we do hope that it will become more of a rumor. The 500 HP is a sub-five-liter V-10 Formula 1-inspired engine so you know that the results will be superb. So the 2012 Lexus GS-F will be one fast sedan.

The engine will be mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission that is a modified version from the LS 460; you can also switch over to manual shift by using the F1 style paddles for a true racing feel. So the BMW M5 had better watch out, there could be a new king in town.
