Bimmerfest scooped the M3/M4 engine details a few months ago, they claimed output would be 415hp/395lb-ft.

Interesting discrepancy between the two.

Maybe it gets 395 with an overboost mode like the 1M Coupe. They also have sound of it at idle as well.

Overall, so as much as a current gen mustang gt? Hmmm. Well done BMW. Well done. The ultimate driving testicle.... Err I meant machine.

That's what I got the last 5 times I tried to view this post.

Now that I've seen it, I have to admit I like it more than I initially wanted to like it. The choice of colour is a bit too bold for my taste here, but the form looks quite promising. Can't wait to see the real deal come time.

Are you a BMW engineer releasing stats on the internet!!!?!?!?

Being a dick because I didn't think everything was released for sure yet, just rumors.

Bimmerpost leaked details months ago.

It's mostly been met with skepticism here, but Bimmerpost has had a very high degree of accuracy in the past so I choose to believe them.

I don't doubt them, but I wouldn't be surprised if BMW bored it out a little bit either though.
