oh HELL no, the BMW V8's suck. Honestly if I just had to have a V8 for some reason (250-300 HP isn't enough I guess?), I'd get a 'merican one. The LS1 is by all means a much better package. FWIW, a tuned s50 or m30 will make the same or better numbers than a 4L BMW V8. And they'd be lighter, smaller, simpler.
