I think the LCI 335i will die in the states, but survive in other markets perhaps. Quote:

Well, since my post never mentioned 260hp figure, I don't see how it contradicts itself. |

(On the other hand, this forum's software doesn't put the ability to search for a user's previous posts front and center, so such a reply shouldn't be unexpected.) |

I was looking a video of the mini cooper s seem like the redline is around 6500rpm. I wonder if it will be the same for the b48 and b58 in the 3 serie.

If the 320i comes with 192PS below the 200PS mark and the new 330I goes into the 250-300PS sektor (272PS was quotesd from different source more than on time!) it makes absolutly no sence to leave the very important (for EU) 200-250PS sektor free, when you have an perfect fiting .25i wíth 231PS allready in the portfolio.
But it true, that the .35i with 306PS is an luxury problem for the 3er series, this engine is more important for the coming US premier X1 |

C300/328i C400/340i stand trim C450 AMG Sport/340i mperformance This is just a theory based on: 1) there is a HUGE market for the C400/340i (@C400 hp) 2) the first post states BMW is trying to bridge the gap between the 335i and the M3/4, it does not say they are running away from their current setup, just trying to add something to bridge the gap. At least that's my understanding. 3) the Germans are known for nickel and diming and the model of offering a base 340i at current 335I prices to compete with the C400 and then asking for more money to get you 365hp seems to be consistent with nickel and diming folks. Mercedes will most likely do the same with the C450 ask for more money than the C400 and less than the C63. The fantasy of getting 365hp from a German manufacturer at current 335i or C400 pricing is not something I am willing to subscribe to right now. However everyone is speculating at this stage and I like speculating

I would like to bet 340i in stnd trim at 330, current ppk is 35hp so that gels well with the engine being discussed here at 365hp. How do we administer this. $100/person. You have to be within 5hp to win
