No, I don't think they will be running big V8 petrols in 50 years time either, and of course a lot can change in 50 years, but we're not talking about the cars of the future. The car in question is the E92 M3, and at this moment in time there is no need to go any other route as by all accounts the S65 engine is a real corker.

So why would they put a turbo on the engine?

The answer is they wouldn't, because it goes against what the M ethos is, and that's deriving power from high revs as opposed to forced induction.

Which is exactly the point I was making. So why don't you reel your neck in and stop showing yourself up.
