I predict the 340i will only have 320hp/320ft lbs. The ZF 8HP45 used in the 3-series (and other cars/SAVs with the N55) is only rated to 330ft lbs of torque.

Who's to say they'll use the same transmission? People also forget that chipped N54's were breaking 350HP, so that might be more of a soft rating.

Also very interested in the 330. Here's to hoping it's worth the wait.

I also think its going to be pretty silly to have the 3 have more power than the 4... i wonder how long it will take to get that converted over. maybe they will be announced at the same time just with different launch dates... 340 vs 440

That production calendar is canon. There will be no 440 through the end of the year.
