Hmmm, M cars usually don't last past 100k, now a bimmer revving to 11k, I can't imagine how reliability is with that?

Just curious, what other cars out there are high revving? I know the RS4 has an 8250 redline, but what else is out there?

No way BMW would do this. They might as well five us the four banger from their WTCC 320Si. Way cheaper and revs only to 9k rpm and makes 275hp. They probably will do what they did with the E46 3 series and add a performance package and raise the boost of the 135i and slight weight reduction. 11k rpm? One can only dream to have this in a production car.

I think the new M3, M5, Ferrari 360... all rev beyond 8000rpm (360 is 8500 I believe) to name a few.
