The true performance enthusiasts on this forum lament the loss of the longitudinal mounted N55 (I.e.smallish vehicle + big motor = fun). I understand why BMW moved away from this as it was not a volume seller. No sense harping though, but rather hoping they will give us 300hp+ 4cyl with rear drive biased awd. Side Note: I have noticed the trend that 6cyl models are getting very expensive. I shuttered when I saw the price of a reasonably equipped 340i xdrive approaching US$60K. Same with comparables from Audi and Mercedes.
