It seems we're even on the way down in HP-ratings, at least in Europe. I read an article on bimmertoday saying the x30i will lose 13 ps (back to 245 ps) because of emssion regulations. It would also get an integrated liquid cooled exhaust manifold. This is confirmed in the G26 press release apparently.
Performance suffers a little too: 0-100 km/h in 6.2 s for the EU-spec 430i and 0-60 mph in 5.8 s for the US spec
