Finally the article is on the web:
http://www.autobild.de/aktuell/meldu...rtikel_id=9480
Production begins in early 2007, 425 HP (not confirmed) between RS4 420 and C65 AMG 450. Interestingly the head of M used to be with AMG. Anyway, and it's very interesting, he said he hates turbos and he said although diesel with turbos is a possibility, he categorically rulled out any kinds of "compressors" on non-diesel's cars. "Nur einen Kompressor werden Sie bei uns nicht sehen – das verspreche ich."
I am not sure though if he only talked about the M or BMW in general, my guess it's only applicable to Motorsport

AUTO picture preview of BMW m projects M makes mobilely BMW sets on vitamin M: more models, more muscles, more music. To the strong classical authors M3 and M5 come M1, M roadster and Coupé as well as a particularly strong Touring. By George Kacher over 20.000 M5 with V8-Motor the BMWS M GmbH built and over 70.000 M3 with the row six cylinder. But the team under Ulrich Bruhnke - which had by the way until 2003 with AMG saying - wants still more highly outside. As basis for the next stage a new building block principle with three engines, which takes the entire BMW pallet off from the planned M1 to the hoped for supersports car M10, serves the m-evolution. The high speed concept, which is the basis for these engines, took its beginning with the row number of the current M3. No, this machine is not ripe still for a long time for the old person part. "the engine is still at least good for a further model generation", is pleased Bruhnke. It is built in modified form (then it fulfills finally the EU-4-Abgasnorm) first in the M roadster, the at the beginning of of 2005 into Detroit premiere celebrates. Two months later Geneva salon the accordingly motorized M Coupé stands on that. With an unchanged piston displacement by 3,2 litres is to be counted on an achievement from approximately 340 HP to. Why does BMW bring the m-version of the Z4 not directly with the bulligen V8? Because it does not fit in, and because one wants to waive oneself the machine with the contraction S65B44 for the new M3. The fourth M3-Generation is to be introduced only at the beginning of of 2007. The Coupé, which gets a completely independent body, makes the beginning. Who saw the Zweituerer in the direct comparison to the Viertuerer, to the topic êr row in such a way understands the planning games (the Coupé should is called original).
