If these latest moves are what we can expect going forward, maybe the alternative would be better for us as buyers. VW AG is still putting out NA V8, ,V10, and V12 models... Just sayin.

Perhaps you should have read on.
Watch as VAG also resort to Turbos in order to match forthcoming legislations.
The V12 engine will still continue at BMW because it will still be required for the 7er - A G12 760Li will be available as will V12 replacements for the Rolls-Royce Ghost and additional models.
And then this is going to happen.
Helped along by emission busting FWD cars , BMWi and lower emissions throughout the portfolio. BMW will be in position to launch a model like this.
