I think the the technology has progressed to the point where a turbo-charged 4 could have a lot of potential. I drove the Mk1 and Mk2 Cooper S which is a great example of how well a super/turbocharged 4-cylinder can be applied into a small, fun car.
I will probably never sell my 1M but a small, quick, and agile M2 would really tempt me away from the Porsche that I want as my next ride in a couple years.
These are some good times to be a car-geek, regardless!
