Doesn't help that they've stopped trying and just trotting out the same old engine again.

I'm not trying to be a dick, but honestly what more did you want in the engine? More power? Higher revving? No camshaft?

Yes. More revs, maybe a return to ITB. Just signs of life at the division that used to stand for Motorsports. Aside from the E36 to E46 M3 motors (the real ones, not the US S52) it's hard to think of M ever doing less developmental work for a new M motor.
They're just sticking to a warmed over version of a nearly ten year old motor design. I'm sure it's a fine lump, but M used to do new, interesting things, not just skate by on past accomplishments.
