If you want a N/A BMW, you better snap up an E82 128i before they're all gone. Fuel economy standards have made high-revving N/A engines a thing of the past in street cars. Turbocharged cars "cheat" in fuel economy test cycles because the cycle never calls for acceleration intense enough to generate significant boost. That's the big advantage of a turbocharged car, you effectively have a variable displacement engine, which means you get the advantage of reduced consumption at low power levels. Give up that advantage, and you fail to meet fleet fuel economy benchmarks.
