I just hope BMW/MINI bring their diesel power plants over.
Not announced to be on the horizon but Getrag pairing up with MINI to make their AWD MCS prototype into a production model would be sweet.

Otherwise nothing really exciting, I have my sights set on something that's already been produced

Wait, there is a CTS coupe coming out? I thought it was just some random concept that would never see the light of day.

i doubt its gonna OWN it but maybe it will be a little better and I said MAYBE. I havent been reading up on the VW lots latelly but I have read before that maybe they get a awd 250hp 6speed 2.0T gti. And the normal gti will have 220 I think, and thats probably at the wheels since the MKv is getting dynoed at 195-205 at the wheels and they are rated 200hp from the factory
