All of the remarks asking for 600 hp is ridiculus. It is not important how much power you pack, it is important how well you put it down. Think about Porsche's. They are not HP giants, but they are super fast cars.

I would prefer M cars stay naturally aspirated as well, but the M division is also under pressure to increase fuel economy with its products. This is where the benefits of forced induction come in.

Boring car nice car for tuning enthusiast for the straight line power.
I rather have car which i can steer on the throttle. That means throttle response from an atmo engine. I am not putting in one dollar/euro into this big piece of lumpy metal. ///M is loosing it. What they have accomplish in years. The heritage of fantastic high rev racing engines for the street is going away. But one thing is certain they can change their way in building engines and go for the easy route (turbo) But they can t get me to the point i am tranferring my hard earn cash for that. |

Is it me or does this seem early for them to be testing the M? I know that they may be sharing the same engine, but I cannot remember the M prototype and the standard car wearing camo at the same time.
