[QUOTE="Hikaru, post: 686629, member: 22411"] I guess what BMW is trying to do is to break the typical driver's perception that if you pay a high price, you must get a high powered engine with crazy performance. This is targeting executive class people who don't care enough about performance to want something high powered but still wants the driver involvement of a BMW. So it will work for this targeted segment. For the naughty owners, 1.6 litre with turbo charge can only mean two things: lighter engine and a lot of room for potential tuning. Imagine I can buy a 2nd hand one cheaper than the 320s and chuck a japanese engine in to it or better yet the older generation BMW straight six. Ok technically how its gonna work i won't know but seems like happy days. PS: I don't mind changing my E90 320 for this because I am hardcore BMW but not rich enough to afford a new 320 (relatively).
