    Sounds great. A more affordable alternative to the more expensive v8 400hp 4.0L M3. Given that it is turbocharged, getting it upto 400+hp is probably more boost and a couple of mods away.

    I think what prompted this is the new Lexus IS350 and it's 300+ hp 3.5L v6. The Infiniti G35 is right at the 300hp mark as well and BMW had no 3-series car to fill that mark since the M3 was moving upto 400 horses. And so they felt like they needed to fill the void left by the 333hp E46 M3. Gotta say, a 330hp TT 3.0L 335i fills that void quite nicely:).
