I’m tiered of people whining about the red line. Did you guys just become BMW fans over the last 6-8 years?? Every M engine before 200x did not rev over 8K. High revving is not the norm it was the exception. It was a small era and now it is over due to political and enviornmental factors. If this comes as a shock to you, you must live under a rock.

In my E39 M5 I never felt I needed to be able rev the engine higher than 7K. And I'm very glad they designed it (and the F10) for more torque versus high revs and no torque. I was disappointed when the E60 1st came out and it had 100 more Hp, but no increase in torque.
