Collectively, we spend an unexpected amount time repeating the following sentence, &#8220;As much as I know I shouldn&#8217;t, I love the <a href=\"http:\/\/autoblog.com\/model\/x6\">BMW X6<\/a>. I know it&#8217;s wrong, I know. But it&#8217;s just a great car.&#8221; But you know what makes less sense than the X6? The <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/model\/x6+m\">X6 M<\/a>. That car&#8217;s stone cold <em>crazy<\/em>. Therefore we like it even more than the regular flavor SAC (Sports Activity Coupe). Have you met our friend <a href=\"http:\/\/autoblog.com\/tag\/hamann\">Hamann<\/a>?<\/p>\n<p>For the <a href=\"http:\/\/autoblog.com\/category\/geneva-motor-show\">2010 Geneva Motor Show<\/a>, Hamann brought along its new <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2010\/02\/22\/ber-crossover-hamanns-670-horsepower-tycoon-evo-m-to-debut-in\/\">Tycoon EVO M<\/a>. And&#8230; it&#8217;s quite bonkers.The 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8 has been pumped up to the tune of <em>670 horsepower<\/em> and 576 pound-feet of torque. For comparison&#8217;s sake, the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/tag\/Lamborghini+Murcielago+LP670-4+SuperVeloce\/\">Lamborghini Murcielago LP670-4 SuperVeloce&#8217;s<\/a> mighty 6.5-liter V12 produces 670 hp &#8211; exactly the <em>same<\/em> amount as the Hamann Tycoon EVO M. Crazy, no? Oh, also, the mightiest ever Lambo makes 89 lb-ft of torque <em>less<\/em> than this mental patient Hamann. <\/p>\n<p>Then there&#8217;s the little matter of the carbon fiber. Look, we&#8217;re all for saving precious pounds but keep it real for a minute. Before Hamann got their filthy mitts all over it, the X6 M weighed in at 5,324 pounds. Lord (and Hamann) only knows what it weighs now. And since we&#8217;re keeping it real, shaving a few pounds off the front end of an over-powered beast like the Tycoon is killing a mouse with the 101st Airborne. In other words, the carbon fiber hood and splitter is nothing but blingy, look-at-me bunting. And since we&#8217;re ragging on conspicuous displays of too much wealth, <em>Tycoon<\/em>? Really? That said, we&#8217;ve never seen 23-inch wheels look so perfectly at home.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"postgallery\">\n<p><strong>Gallery: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/geneva-2010-hamann-tycoon-evo-m\/low\/\">Geneva 2010: Hamann Tycoon Evo M<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/geneva-2010-hamann-tycoon-evo-m\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/03\/02hamanntycoonevomlive_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/geneva-2010-hamann-tycoon-evo-m\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/03\/01hamanntycoonevomlive_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/geneva-2010-hamann-tycoon-evo-m\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/03\/03hamanntycoonevomlive_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/geneva-2010-hamann-tycoon-evo-m\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/03\/04hamanntycoonevomlive_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/geneva-2010-hamann-tycoon-evo-m\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/03\/05hamanntycoonevomlive_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p style=\"padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2010\/03\/04\/geneva-2010-hamann-tycoon-evo-m-more-powerful-than-mightiest-la\/\">Geneva 2010: Hamann Tycoon EVO M more powerful than mightiest Lamborghini<\/a> originally appeared on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\">Autoblog<\/a> on Thu, 04 Mar 2010 08:29:00 EST.
