I do think it is sad that the engines do not have special manufacturing anymore however, I hope that this perceived sacrifice in bragging rights and lower production cost will result in lower MSRPs (relatively speaking); especially considering new expensive CFRP technology. I mean, a CFRP drive shaft cant be cheap! So if BMW is saving money for this kind of thing by putting the engine manufacturing under the same house as the rest of the car then I can forgive them. :-)
