Wht do u mean underpowered? None of it's competition at that time have a 3 litre NA which produces 255hp. Audi's 3.2 V6 was the only one competitive with it at that time. The other 3 litres (Merc M272, Toyota GR) all produced around 230hp.
As I said before, the engine in the 330i was brand new & it was first fitted to the E90 in the whole of the BMW range.
