The idea that 4cyl are for ****** econoboxes that are heaps are over. The idea that the V6 is the the top of the midsized world is over. Hyundai and to a lesser part Buick will start to take that wall down.
BMW will replace its base N/A 6cyls with turbo 4's, Its V8's with turbo 6's, and Twin turbo V8s replacing its V10's and V12's, as will Benz.
AMG is working on more effiecent powertrains to replace its 6.2 liter V8 already.
Audi is already jumping in by replacing the old V8 out of the S4 and putting in a supercharged V6.
Dont be surprised if the turbo 4 makes it into the base 6th Gen Camaro once it gets downsized in 2014.
