'I' stands for injected on BMW's.

Like he said -- all BMW models end in "i" to indicate fuel injection -- even though no BMW model currently sold in the US offers anything but. *duh* Yay marketing.

well it used to be injection like GM had EFI Electronic Fuel Injecton. but if Toyota wants to call there engine intelligent, more power to them but my engine is as dumb as a box of rocks because its can't do anything with out my help (turning the key).
