Remember this? BMW should be able to make much more power than 450 PS with THREE turbos! Look what they can do with (just two turbos on) the N54! |

I'll wait a year or two after the F3X M3 arrive to see if they have failures on their fuel pumps or things related to having FI engines, and see how they deal with it. Then for sure I'll consider owning the new M3.

“but this is something we could do easily.”
That's not very comforting. ///M cars are supposed to have passion and history behind them. It's not something that should be "easily" done.

I think he meant that they have the proper resources to make a Z4M, not that it would be a fast process. Even if the Z4M is made from M3 components and has an M3 motor, i bet it will be fantastic like the last version was if they follow the same formula.

I'll wait for 2028 V8 TT M3 with 600HP, I'm still thinking if I'll opt for the total CF body (option ZCF = $3500) or get the regular CF roof and hood base model. After all, those $3500 can get me their upgraded Brembo brakes (ZBK) and their new adjusted aero spoiler (ZSP) that thing is amazing.

Is it rumored to be a V6TTT or I6TTT? I thought it was mentioned on here awhile back that a V6TTT was a potential configuration?

I don't know. A triple turbo with one being electric sounds more like a V6. Turbo each side for the 3 exhaust ports and one electric on top. There is also the advantage of weight distrobution as the I6 forces the cabin further back. More compact V6 could shorten the hood length and thus save weight and retain motor weight behind the front axle. Interesting to think about either way. Three turbos sound heavy.
