no you miss understood what i was trying to say.

its much more than a V8 that makes it feel more exotic. its the sound,N/A, high redline etc.... a I6 can do that also! but BMW is now pumping out these turbo engines that will never see any high redlines or have the sounds that a lot of people will miss.

its funny, i know there are people at BMW who would rather be making N/A, high revving engines over this turbo "efficient" engine crap. its ALL about MPG now, remember that.
