Option #1!!! Come on BMW. Keep the V8 for the F30/F32 m3 with a Twin Turbo! As much as I would want this to happen I doubt it cuz thats in the new M5 So I dont know how likely it will be that BMW will have similar engines in 2 different cars.

What do you guys think? Will BMW Keep the V8 and Slap Twin Turbos on it?

1. S65 V8 Biturbo Engine
This one comes as the biggest suprise to us. Most of us are sad thinking about current M3's glorious S65 engine (which just won an International Engine of the Year Award) going away. However, according to this rumor, it may be far from gone. BMW M has allegedly reworked the engine internals, lowered the redline slightly, and -- sit tight -- added a bi-turbo. Maximum output would be only a tad higher than in the current S65, but with much more torque and much lower fuel consumption.
