I agree it would be nice to have hard specs on suspension and engine. But never underestimate the perfomance gains of removing weight. I would do that first to a track car before adding any power. BMW is throwing this out there to get reaction. We need to make it clear, we want a PERFORMANCE version. The regular 135 seems well suited for a daily driver, but give us something uncomprimising and raw. A true BMW Motorsport version.
