Excellent. The N54 has >200kW (= >268bhp). One would hope >>>200kW. 15kW seems hardly worth the expense of the turbos if that is all we get beyond the N52. One would hope for something closer to the S4, but I suppose that would put the cost into the stratosphere. Further speculation on pricing? Feasible to get one euro delivery with ZHP (some similar package might be standard? One might imagine alcantara and 19" wheels) for under 40k US$ ? This is beginning to look like the car of my lifetime -- I am holding off on ordering an E90 until the details become available. Then again, maybe I should get on a 335i wait list. Any advice on how to convince the wife that this is sane would be most appreciated...
