With the advent of the G29 my thoughts have turned to the E89 3.0 and its depreciation - in 18 months when mine is paid off those silky smooth beasts might be very tempting

Consider yourself lucky that there are any 6 cylinder engine versions at all, BMW could have dropped them completely à la Porsche with the Boxster

Give it 10 years and regulations will probably mean that the last generation of internal combustion engines in cars are 2 cylinder/500cc with several turbos that'll sound like an amphetamine-overdosed beehive... :x

I thought that was the reason the Sun review disappeared from Gwest44's post but, so that people know what I was talking about, hopefully this small excerpt from the end of the review will be allowed?

I must admit that I do like the rear of the new car... Shame you can’t have that without the new front :rofl:
