Not really. Slicing the V8 to V6 makes sense to me.. And we first heard a rumor of tri-turbo for M3, and now same rumor for X3M... Also, for efficiency purposes, smaller the engine, larger the turbo boost is better, right.. So a V6 with tri-turbos might really be the "engine" for the next M3...

Also, I remember seeing the mention of a V6 for F3x M3 in Roundel like a year or more ago.. And supposedly it was from a some guy in M divison. The article (or news) had the name of the guy too... And this was in Roundel, not a random webpage or anything..
