Good and Bad
I am taking all of these reports with a grain of salt.
It makes perfect sense for the next 3-series to be more aerodynamic, have more efficient lighting, heating, etc. I am sure it will still handle very well.
But I won't be buying any 3 cylinder car anytime soon. And I doubt most North American customers would either. Remember, BMW makes a number of smaller engines that never make it across the ocean. When was the last time you saw a 320d?!? Whatever the 2 largest, most powerful engines are, those will end up in Canada and the US.
I just hope they keep the twin-turbo 6 around as an option. Now that I am "dinanized" I am spoiled.
Or maybe I'll be looking at a G37 in 2013-14?
