  1. Back in 1988, BMW launched the M3 with a high-revving four-cylinder
    engine even though the top non-M 3 Series model was equipped with an
    inline-six. The reason: the little four-banger weighed less. The
    power-dense 2.3-liter four produced 197 horsepower, which was enough to
    make the original M3 one of the most sought after performance BMWs of
    all time. Two successive generations of M3 stepped up the cylinder count
    to six and provided a nice bump in power, and the M3 that came after
    them was equipped with a screaming V8. The M3's x431 iv history dictates that M
    cars aren't about staying the same - they're meant to push limits - and M
    Motorsport engineers decided that the new M3 Sedan and M4 Coupe would
    push limits best with a twin-turbocharged inline-six.
