Agreed, the engine alone does not make or break any car. But if you take two equally configured 3 Series, both with the same equipment, suspension, transmission, etc., do you believe the turbo 4 will be more fun than the NA inline 6?
Of course all of this is a matter of taste, but I've never driven a turbo 4 that I like better than a good BMW inline 6. If given the choice, I'll take the inline 6 every time and I'll probably take the NA engine every time. I just don't like the sound, the roughness or the power delivery of turbo 4s -- I think that's a lot to give up for 1-2 MPG.
