I'll ask the most basic question of all...

How is this motor controlled? On a standalone?

F80 electronics with an E92 motor???

MaynardZed · 04-01-2015, 12:20 PM

April fools for sure. Why would you want to make your M4 slower?

my335i · 04-01-2015, 12:21 PM

Aprils fools...

Sid3waze · 04-01-2015, 12:24 PM

solstice · 04-01-2015, 12:27 PM

Joke or not, man it sure looks good in there. S65 I miss you.

SemperFiGuy · 04-01-2015, 12:32 PM

Haha good one. I'll keep the torque, but loved the sound of the v8.

Cortexiphan · 04-01-2015, 12:33 PM

Good one.

At this point, I'd like to say, even if it was possible, I would never go back to S65. It was way slower, and made the car feel very heavy. S65 sounded better on high revs, but the new engine is way more capable IMO.

gblansten · 04-01-2015, 12:35 PM

Awesome April fools joke. You had me.
