Not arguing just discussing ( i know internet tone is hard to read, So dont want you to think I disagree )... Just figured they could of made their own I6 which also could of doubled down as an i4 aka modular. But either or in the day of hybrids and electrics im glad we have yet another I6 RWD Turbo and even if its Toyota badged ( Legacy & Name Aside ) it will be a great modable car im sure. If anything we will drag other companys into the BMW fold that would of never made aftermarket BMW parts.

Toyota already has a relatively new line of V6s both NA and twin turbo that can be used for both FWD and RWD.
Again, no use in creating a new engine that isn’t cost effective. It would be like BMW developing a V6 just to use in its FWD-based platforms and the i8.
