Well one thing to remember about the New M-egines they may be big and be a V-config but they're fast, high reving and responsive. The S62 engine was a bit more of a traditional V-8 with grunt and growl but I think the new engines are just as free flowing and high-revving as the S54 engine is.

As for pricing, the base E46 M3 now goes for $48.9k. My guess is the base E92 M3 will go for between ~$55k and 60k depending on what options they include as standard. I personally hope they keep it like the current M3 where the car has a good amount of gadgetry and electronics base but you can add all the other options afterward. A fully loaded M3 will run around ~$60-65k now so I think a fully loaded E92 M3 will go for 10k more.
