I wasnt getting defensive. I was just trying to give you all my sources and my opinions on why i think its true. Thats the problem with posting on message boards, peoples attitudes are misinterpretted because it is just words on a thread and no conversation. Sorry if you thought I was barking at you.

I think I might have read it in the roundel or in bimmer mag to a while back. I also remeber reading that the 5.0 V10 and 4.0 V8 were both derived directly from the V8 used in the racing M3 GTR which used a 4.0 V8 race engine which i think produced somewhere in the area of 500plus hp. But then porsche complained because they were getting killed and the M3 had to go back to the strait 6. Im pretty sure that was true. I read so much on cars that I forget where I read it and if it was rumors or fact.

Good point. All to often a simple question or counter point is misinterpreted as a challenge or dig when it's not the case at all.

hard to top e46 M3 looks, and all around performance
but the new one will definitely do it
specially now since a lot more pressure from RS-4, and upcoming C63
