I have a 2010 328xi...and I have read before that this engine, the straight inline 6, is thought by some "purists" to be one of the best BMW engines.

Now, before I get flamed I want to make a few things clear:

1) I am NOT looking for argument about how the 335 engine is more powerful and superior blah blah blah

2) I am NOT saying that the new 4 cylinder turbo is subpar or even incompetent (quite the opposite, I'm sure it's great)

All I am asking is whether there is any validity that this inline 6 ("N52?") will be sought after in the future by potential buyers since it is the last inline 6 BMW will produce...or so it seems. Thoughts?
