Agreed they need to be looked after more.. but don't destory the balance by shoving a larger and lazier engine up front...

If you want the 6 go for a later m3
You mean like dropping a 3.6l in place of a 2.7? . The weight difference is right around 100 lbs. Lose the A/C and get a CF hood and your golden.

But if your into originality then roll with the 4 banger.
