    The greater danger for most of us lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short but in setting our aim too low and achieving our mark

    I think it's pretty gay how the new 535i has switched to a single turbo setup just to save a few grams of C02. Pretty much ruined the motor's great torque curve.

    It's expected this new single-turbo 3.0L six will trickle down through the 3-series and Z4 model lines.
    It's not what you drive, it's where you park it at night.

    Rumor is the change will start in March 2010 production. Will be called the N55.

    Guess its part marketing too. Next M3 is suppose to be a V6 twin turbo.

    I have always liked the fact that the m3 was strait motor. No turbos or Superchargers needed.

    yeah, I'm more into actual production pictures. I'm even more into the performance stats.
