With an easy tune, a 335i can get exactly the same performance numbers as this... I hope this fails and they're forced to return to the V8.
Bottom line: S65 will be a classic legendary engine..

It's this kind of ignorance that makes BMW owners such a rare breed. The 335i can also outrun the S65 easily, so why is the V8 so good? Just because of sound? It's a driver's car, not a musical instrument. If you want an uncompromising vehicle with intoxicating sound AND good looks AND back breaking performance AND comfort AND superb handling find an extra $250k and buy a Ferrari. Otherwise all the whining is just intolerable, it's a 60-70k dollar car for god's sake.
