Steve,  Just my point of view, butt:  If you would like BMW to make a 
new motor, and if you like boxers, then this is what you get.  There 
are no interchangeable pars between the new and old motor.  It is an 
all new interpretation of the oil head concept.

You get lighter weight, new displacement, new engine management, knock 
sensors for each cylinder, tps for each side,  new injection computer 
with O2 sensor on each side, balance shaft, larger air box, and on and 
on.

If you don't want another boxer, then look elsewhere.
