If I am interpreting the cutaway model right, is the exhaust dumping into the engine V? And the intake is down where the exhaust ports usually are? That is very clever packaging if so.

BMW knows what they're doing but I'm wondering about all that heat in in the vee of the motor. You've got exhaust (very hot), spinning turbos (also hot), and not a lot of space there. Just wondering what that's going to do in the long run. It's going to be hot in there, that's for sure!

Does it only come with Mario and Pilotwings for the first few weeks?
Mario 64 was the greatest game ever created!

Ever notice that companies like Honda and BMW are the only mainstream ones who do cool engine displays like that.
