Should the next M3 have a i6

[2e30]

they failed at a v8 with less then 250tq at wheels
so im thinking a nice single turbo straight six with nice amount of torque

[Bimmer_man]

I personally am a huge fan of the i6 in a lot of cars BMW, Nissan Skyline ( not the GTR ), Toyota Supra......im seeing a pattern all of these cars are extremely hard to beat on a track and are vary reliable with massive amounts of HP. Same with diesel trucks. i6 really has minimal issues at all. Where as a V8 well i have never liked it. It usually is a gas guzzling heavy annoying motor. BMW ill admit made a nice V8 but they need to stick with i6.

The M3 should be designed around the racing class it will be campaigned in. Designed to win.

Just like the original. Anything less will be a poseur.

This.

i know the v8's tend to push more power but honestly guys the i6's BMW has made have all been straight up tanks and amazing engines so why should they go away from what they do so good that's like saying they should start making trucks!

[Lodsin]

Or they could make cars instead of planes.

I'm scared.

New exact e30 M3 revival. Not ford's or dodge's type of attempt at mustangs and Darts. But an exact copy of a new e30 M3 with individual throttle bodies 2.0liter 4 cyl with rare euro turbo edition that we would all drool over without access to. Or Posseeeuuurr.

I remember reading something in 2011 saying bmw was going to make the new version of the E30 m3 in 2017.

I give no fucks what engine is in it. I don't give a fuck if BMW even makes a new car, as long as they keep making parts for E30s. What they do with a new car I won't ever own doesn't affect the car I drive or any car I will.

BMW cant compete or comply in todays world with a NA 6cyl engine so those who want one simply have to get over it and get an E36/46.........for the most part the market doesn't even want one anyway.

I would like to see a Light M3 with "BMW's Carbon Fiber Chassis" with a NA 9000rpm 4 banger get back to its roots.

I don't really care what engine it have (I6) as long as it is not focused on satisfying the millionaire that wants a M3 because of the status they think it gives but rather focus on making it way faster around any track than any other car within it's price range, which would probably end up as being looked on as a step down for some that wants all luxury items...

BMW have so many different models now that they can cram all crap into so they might as well just focus the M's wholeheartedly on performance... ye that will happen.
