LCI changed everything but a V8. What do you guys think on possibility of a new engine in the near future?

At one point a 4.4L V-8 twin turbo was rumored for the next gen 7 series (due out sometime in 2008 as a 2009) ... which could then make its way into the 5 series.
More recently there has been talk about a direct injection V-8 (420HP) being developed for the next generation 5 series ... but it may debut in the Progressive Activity Sedan in 2009.
Either way, Ricracing probably has it right ... nothing new until the F10.
