According to ynguldyn's recent info, the next B58 is the B58B30O1 which won't be here until 2019. It's still possible that the current M0 will get even more power, but I don't know how likely that really is. My expectation is 355hp for the G02 X4 M40i, G20 M340i, and G29 Z4 M40i next year. We shall see.

The G70 pre-release info suggest it will be quicker than the Stinger to 100 (4.7 vs 4.9 I believe) Not sure if it will get more power than the Stinger, but it will be lighter, so that may explain the faster time. I've seen lots of people suggesting BMW always underrate their HP, especially in their straight 6 engines, is that really true?
Two weeks ago, I took delivery of a '17 340 with the MPPSK, after driving C450 AMG for almost 2 years. The C450 wasn't slow, but the BMW just feel a little more urgent, especially the mid range passing power. I would love the G20 with 380hp (wishful thinking, maybe), not that the car would be under-powered at 355, but just for bragging rights.
