e92 CRT?

I remember reading about the e90 CRT and Scott eluding to an end-of-production edition of the e92 that makes further use of lightweight materials. Anyone know of anything in the works, or is the GTS the end of the road?


/Edit/
Here is the post in question

As of now, there are no plans on changing the engine displacement for any US model due to federal regulations and the cost of homologating the new engine. (especially for a limited production car that will barely last a full model year)

Yeah it sucks we get no true love in America with the engines, at least we will have some other special bits.
