I bet you the majority of the new engine proponent never owned a high revvin NA V8,they think their 135i engine is the nec plus ultra.
I'm with you here, I absolutely love my 135i but we used to have an E90 M3 and I really, really, really miss that engine. My car used to be tuned but every time I hear someone try to claim that you can make a regular 3 series better than an M3 with aftermarket parts I want to die. You cannot match the handling and refinement and you absolutely cannot make the N54 or N55 as awesome as the S65, even if you can make more power.
