I absolutely agree it is a simple issue. But I maintain that the issue is one of cost. Why? Because I can't convince myself that BMW is just completely incapable of building a 3L V8 that meets or exceeds their fuel efficiency and emmisions criteria goals for the next M3. However, I can easily believe that they can't do it while meeting the cost requirements of their business case for the product. It's the same reason why I never believed a ~3L V6 was in the cards either.
It comes down to the one thing that matters to a business: money.
