Its a downward spiral from here. everything is going small trubo engines. watch next engine M3 be a 4 cylinder engine. people will look back at the V8 days and dam "wow this use to make engines like that"

People" have moved the goal posts of performance since the E30 went out of production and the E36 went into production. It has always been an argument for the outgoing car (..
it handles like this, has a motor like that, was raced in this series, etc.), and a tendency to minimize or lambast the incoming car. The E9X's arrival was no different, and it ventured the furthest away from BMW's '
tried & true' ///M philosophy. People act like the arrival of the E9X was met with open arms; it wasn't!
