F36 with B48 engine and ordering in AZ
Does anyone know when the new B48 4 cylinder engine will be available in the 4 Series Gran Coupe? Also, any recommendations on ordering at Invoice via any Arizona Dealers?

Hmm..I don't think the B48 will supersede the N20/N26. The B48 puts out 231hp in the Mini..well under the N20/N26 specs in HP and TQ. The 2016 320i is supposedly slated for it...but output is about the same as now, 180hp.
*EDIT. Reports say the the 328 will come back as the 330 with the B48. I haven't seen anything on the GC coming back with it as yet. I tend to think at least another year for GC series.......

I think the B48 will be a 2017 model year at the F36 at the earliest. Looking forward to it from my experience of it in a Mini Cooper S. So much less rattly than the N20!
