Ok, but I'm not totally following that ... the M4 engine is "totally redesigned" anyway so, yes, they would've redesigned it but it would've been an NA v8 I'm thinking were it not for needing to hit CAFE.
All guesses, but I have hard time believing the I6 was designed solely around power-to-weight.
I'm also thinking of MB - does anyone really want them to quit making kickass V8s?
Hell, if I could get an equal performance MB v8 I would buy that all day over a FI I6 and I'm guessing I'm not alone.
