I'm sure the i6 is quieter, smoother, etc. But.. who wants that in a sporty car?

if its true that this car is lighter than the current 1er, then 315 is plenty. I'm guessing BMW doesn't want to too strong because that would leave no room for an M2 and could step on the heels of the M3. The current 135i is pretty close to an M3 in terms of acceleration.
