| The old ///M5 engine (which is in the Z8) was getting closer and closer to not passing the strict regulations of the emmissions over here for a new engine each year that passed, thats part of the reason they did have the last of the run Alpina Roadster with basically a (again) bored out 4.4L block to 4.8L. Part of the reason was also that they didnt have an auto tranny that could handle the ///M5 engine at the time and all the Z8 buyers wanted autos. Anyways, the ///M5 engine is out of the question. Too bad. Hell of an engine.
