I guess I just don't understand why the number of cylinders matters given the same performance figures since it will be lighter and have better fuel economy. Especially given how annoying M owners are about it being a "drivers car", it doesn't make sense to desire something solely because of a purely meaningless data point of 6 instead of 4. I think at this point in time in engineering a 6 cylinder will probably be the preferred choice by BMW due to power delivery (given current technology), but if that decision is made it will have nothing to do with this poll or enthusiast sentiment. It will be because it is the best option. That's what makes a BMW a BMW. If people honestly would not buy it because of the number of cylinders perhaps you should check out a Mustang...
