A45 specs officially revealed. Guessing we will see identical specs for CLA45.

Most powerful production 4-cylinder sold today.
...

People are going to be disappointed when it doesn't look like the concept version.

Umm no thanks.

Price seems fair. If it didn't have manufacturer buyback on the carfax it would maybe sell around $20k.

Is this really the same exact engine? No physical differences?

I understand your position.

The difference between the N54 in 135i and 1M - Vs - The difference in the N63 and S63.

Here is the problem. They don't follow racing, they simply don't know what they are talking about. Like I said before. There are forum members that have modified their M3's way beyond what is...

I was talking more in terms of their racing program. What will they do in two years time, when they don't have a NA production motor to use?

I agree they really have no excuse to not put the S65...

Le Mans is the pinnacle. All the teams in ALMS dream of the 24hr race. A lot of the US based teams just don't have the money to go over there. It is logistical nightmare. Corvette racing gets a...

So what will they do when the S65 does end production, which honestly isn't that far off. Every production engine will soon be FI. I honestly think they are screwed, unless IMSA/ACO allow them to...

It won't matter. But they should hear from fans. Funny thing it will be BMW owners complaining.

Honestly, I feel for the other teams. They are racing in the spirit of the regulations.

Another question is. Will ACO approve BMW to run the Z4 GTE at Le Mans 24hours. Because that is the race...

Exactly it is called a competition adjustment. Funny the M3 got a smaller air restrictor the same time last year as the Boss 302R.

The only Mazda is in ST class, a Speed3. There is no Mazda RX8...

Grand Am runs the Rolex Series and Continental Tire Series.

To different series.

Turners car in Rolex isn't even a M3, it is a tube chassis with a M3 carbon body, with the S62 (like you said)....

Wrong series.

You are talking about Rolex.

They limited revs because they where winning too many races.

Never said any motor was superior than another. The word "superior" was thrown around earlier in the thread.

Simply saying the S65...

I would not say way more. I have seen NA engine builds that would never pass Grand Am regulations.

The GS class hp outputs range from 350-475. The M3 is not at the top end of that, the Camero...

There is a reason Grand AM limited the revs on the S65.

It was a huge advantage they took away from the teams running the M3.

If you knew what the Continental Tire series was. You would understand why I am using it as a comparison.

The series is sold as straight from the showroom racing. There are forum members that...

After I drove the RS5, I really wanted one. I just won't pay msrp for it. The dealers will not budge on this car.

It is about this thread and people making false statements about the S65. You can have your opinion thats fine. Some find it too hard or too expensive to mod the S65 for street racing.

But fact...

The problem is the majority of forum members that mod their cars, don't even follow racing. Have no f*cking clue what the hell they are talking about when it comes to racing. There are members who...

That is simply a false statement. In the Continental Tire Series, basically the closets things to street cars in a racing series.

The S65 powered M3's where cleaning up wins and championships. ...
