I have a little conspiracy theory that is one of reasons why BMW didn't go with a larger displacement inline 6. They didn't want to fall into the next category up (3.0L - 4.0L), that is now dominated by the McLaren 3.8L V8.

There is no conspiracy & the S55 didn't win any awards (in the International Engine of the Year Awards).
On the contrary, the S55 (3rd place) placed lower than its own next of kin, the N55 (1st place).
