you missed my point. what i was trying to say is that, IFFF anything, go forward not backwards [and by that i dont mean make a v8 Z..]. def keep it at 6.

im not sure what bmw was thinking by making a v8 m3. as fun as it was to drive and as much of a beast as it was, it was trying to over reach its "comfort zone" imo. v6 suited the e46 nicely..they shouldve kept it at that while generating more power for future m3s. let the bigger boys Ms take the v8+ engines and keep the m3 at 6.

v6 is the perfect balance in my opinion. if nissan goes lower...they will eventually [probably] realize it wasnt a smart idea and go back up to 6 again.

my 2 cents

I'd buy a V8 Z in a heartbeat. A 560Z would be awesome. And the E46, like all of the M3s before it came with an inline 6.
