Wow, I wasn't expecting that so fast. Especially as the tt 6 just won engine of the year again. Any idea as to when they would be introduced? It sounds like you are talking about serious changes to the existing engines and not just ECU or boost upgrades, correct?

They unleashed that 3.0TT at the EXACT right time.

BMW is comfortable with multiple models with similar power, just see the European lineup of 3 and 5 series with engines differing by a half litre or less.

The NA V8 will be retired eventually, or continue to be produced for certain markets with lower fuel quality.

Thanks for the knowledge I did know that. i.e the 550 has the same engine as the X5 4.8. Not very familiar with BMW naming system!

The current 7-series also has same engine.
