The bottom line is NA engines are less efficient when it comes to fuel while providing similar power.

I don't believe that my last statement in anyway stated i was "displeased" with Turbo engines. If anything I'm all for them. Its just taken BMW a long time to admit that Turbo charging is the way forward because everybody was stuck in their ways into thinking that NA is what "BMW is all about". Yes, this was the case back in the day, but not anymore! Its all about Forced induction!

I can't really comment on BMW ownership and BMW NA engines as i've never owned one, hence the 1M will be my first. All i do know is that my last four cars have had turbo's and i wouldn't buy another NA engine again.
