No, BMW has never put an F1 engine in a production car. He probably just meant the high revving V8 and V10 from the last generation (Exx) M passenger cars, as he mentioned in his post.

Encouraging to hear they won't make the standard model wait for the "coupe" series model, then releasing the two M variants simultaneously. Hopefully this foreshadows the next generation M3 coming before the next generation M4 (and 4 Series for that matter) as well.

The current X1, on the other hand, is a brilliant car. Its only problem is it's much smaller on the inside than F31.
Rack them, pack them, stack them and sell them...

I wonder if the US isn't getting the touring model based on the fact that all North American 3ers will come from Mexico or if they just sell that poorly.

F20 and F21 are sold in Brazil, Asian and Australasian markets

F2x m135i has now been replaced with m140i with same engine as m240i

Oh, right, you no longer belong to EU. Good luck with that.

The post you're replying to was specifically about what was going to happen at F20/F21 LCI. M140i came out much later.

Not all 3ers will be made in Mexico.

BMW thinks 3GT is a better offering for our market. Idiots.

Grammatically true......however, it could be argued they did, but just the other way around, by putting a production based engine into a F1 car instead

You refer to the M10-based M12? To say the least, it is a stretch. The M12 itself was never used in a production car. And it is so far removed from the M10 and other variants that were used in production cars, it might as well be a different engine. An impressive piece of engineering in any case though, yes.

No one knows yet. There isn't anything definite out there yet to say March or July.

Again no one knows yet. The only thing the M3 might get is the new style corona rings lights. It won't be getting new tail lights.

I see that the F82 M4 goes EOP 06/20...

If all you wise sages out there had to speculate is there going to be that yearish gap in production like there was during the transition from E9X? Thanks.

Every M product in history has trailed the initial release of the series product on which it is based by a year or more (usually more, in fact, and sometimes quite a bit more). This is not going to change.

So just assuming here, since 2013 was the last M3 Coupe and the F82 was 2015. Does that mean that even when the F82/F83 EOP is 2020, the newer model will not be out until 2022? I mean model wise, 2022. So the life of the F82 and F83 will be good for at least another 7 years, considering a 2 year wait for all kinks to be worked out? I forgot, meaning if I get my 2017 it will be good for another 7 more years before I get another 2020 M4 or what-not in 2022.

This is my mentality anyway, bearing issues, spun hub issues, etc.
