x6 v8 in 135i
BMW should have squeezed the new FI TT v8 in the 135i if they meant business.

I interpreted that as the Tii, but boy will i be excited with a 145i or whatever the displacement the v8 is.

You fellas are nuts!!! A 135i with that engine is a pipe dream. It would be faster than the E92 M3. Plus Scott said that the current 333hp Z4-M engeine is too heavy...I can imagine that TT V8 weighs more.

The 4.4TT absolutely would not fit in a 135. Even if you took the turbos out from the V and put them on the sides, I dont think it would fit. I am not even sure if the 4.0 V8 would fit in a 135. Also, I cant say for sure but the 4.0 V8 and the Z4M I6 probably weigh close to eachother. So if the I6 is too heavy the V8 would be as well. |

Scott also had a quote regarding the possibility for the existing engine to put out more power. That may be the model above the 135i. Possibly a couple bigger snails, and a tune.
I would think the Tii is going to be the lightweight version, meaning likely a tweaked (possibily turbo) 4 cylinder. |

The "Sport" button would have to be renamed to the "Deficate" button. Every time you push it, you end up deficating yourself.
I know there's not really a sport button.

I don't know...I'm interested in seeing if they do something more. They might, retune for more power, a 4 cylinder would be fucking cool (I'd still take the 135, <3 tq) but you really think that's going to happen?
