V8s are used in the E39 M5 and now E90 M3 so it's not unknown for use in an M car. The V8 engine is slightly lighter I think, and 2 cylinders shorter so it sits relatively further back so handling in theory should be better than the straight 6 3.2 engine. and for the weight balances? more or less w...
