I bet it'll be the one as found in the F01 740i

R6 24V twin turbo, 2979, 326 hp @ 5800, 450 Nm @ 1500-4500

Would be sweet for 1er coupe too....just don't try to name it 140i

sounds really weird imo. As if the car has a V8.

1 series with 326 hp, 450 nm and some nice parts from the performance programm should be sweet.

I love the M-package for BMW, looks great for only a little bit more but it takes the specialness (if you won to call it that) away from the real M cars E.g the M-package for the 5-series looks identical to the M5 but still I'd have it on my BMW (look fantastic

)

This needs to make its way into a performance 1series. I dont know where that 326hp figure came from. I'm praying for 350.

Knowing BMW they'll be healthy well fed ponies(underrated).

I don't really think the M-package does take the specialness away from M cars... If you have say a E92 M-sport standing on its own, it may be mistaken for an M3 yes, but stand it next to an M3, you can instantly see the greater visual impact.. same goes with the M5 in my opinion.

Yes, it might. IMO M-kits and AMG-kits are way too expensive these days already.

Giving the N54 a power upgrade on the 7er kinda makes sense since its such a bulky car, but on the 3 series/1 series, thats just crazy! The 335/135 are already devastatingly close to the M3 in straight line performance... besdies, as it is, the 335/135 dont even have any competition. I dont think a power boost so early is such a good idea, especially not for the M3.
