Same issue with the new M3/M4 ... going back from an Breitling like S65 to an cheaper more standard S55 engine is an bad move for many real M fans ... also when the S55 fulfil the needed power demands ... and don't forget great torque was never an part of THW real M spirit !!!
Spoken like an OG. Listen, I appreciate your point of view and agree with some of your points but I like to look forward to the next best thing. If BMW decides to crank out S55 engines elswhere then so be it. I for one am more interested in peformance more so than sound, heretige aspect or where the engine is produced. Besides if you want a little nostalgia you can always get into E9X ///M3 or earlier.
