It was needed. Improved competition and a weight increase from e46 > e92 was inevitable, so additional power was needed. A NA I6 simply wasn't going to cut it and FI likely would have been too early (lots learned from N54/N55). So naturally they decided to increase displacement and build one of the best production V8's on the planet.
