I would much rather have turbo inline 6cyl with 300hp than the four cyl that is boosted to within an inch of its life...like the Mercedes GLA AMG. Plus the six is smoother and will likely sound better....longevity might not be as big of an issue with the 6cyl vs high boost 4cyl.

I really wish they would have made the F48 frame modular to accommodate a longitudinal engine. Oh well, we'll have to wait and see. I may also check out the X4 35i.
