This was during a visit at the factory and the guide told them they were very lucky that they saw that. Of course it was ( as usual ) forbidden to take pictures in the factory.
The hoods were open and BMW M POWER with the known colours was clearly marked on the engines. He heard them start up and immediately took them away. They sounded very E46 M3 wise he said.
Well.. M Power on engine cover means nothing. I will still get it regardless, but it would be lame if ///M didn't change anything physical to the engine (not drive train) and slap on a ///M badge.
