Therefore, I would guess at the moment:
  • Weight +/- 3275lbs. - EU-weight of an german car
  • Engine V6 BiTurbo - based on the S63Tü
  • Displacement between 2.999 and 3.296ccm
  • Redline 7.800U/min
  • hp-numbers between 440 and 460hp (german)
  • Max.Torque +/- 580Nm
  • Acceleration 0-100km / h +/- 4.0sec
  • NOS-Laptime +/- 7.40min on standard sport tires

P.S. this are only my assumptions ... lets look who near they are at reality !!!
Intriguing

Not sure how reliable your sources are, but this just makes me look even more forward to the official details of the next gen M3/M4

And, the current gen M3 has a engine that is exclusive to the M3 (based on the M5 V10). Going to be interesting to see what they are doing for the next gen

BMW and a V6, after all these years of I6...
