but the high revving V8 is more badass, and WILL always have more of a screaming exhuast note. and come on 8400RPM whats not to love ?

it comes down to what you want out of a engine. i will always prefer the V8 M3 engine over the new setup. as i do the same with the v10 M5 vs turbo V8.

the engines have more of a special appeal more than ever. since everyone is downsizing truboing any engine they can get there hands on.

I feel people will look back at a the V8 m3 and say wow BMW use to make engines like that ?
Based on all the accumulated 19 years of experience you've had. You should be thankful every day that you were born after your father. Someday it will dawn on you that you know nothing.
