In the upgrade menu, the engine upgrades, its the farthest option to the right. BMWs can not swap engines but lots of other makes can.

(A really cool one is with the MkV GTI, before F2 came out, VW had an R36 concept. Basically it was an R32 with a 3.6L motor making 280hp. Well they axed the concept and instead brought a MkV R32. The forza programmers gave the MkV GTI a 3.6L AWD engine swap option. Very cool.)

But yeah, BMWs are severely limited in the game because BMW won't give out licenses for the cars. To get BMWs in a video game the developers have to go through BMW motorsport. That is why you don't see any "normal" / non-m BMWs in the game. Also, they have to use BMW factory body kits and no FI. Sucks.

Yeah, it would be cool to put specific racing seats in the cars as well as steering wheels and such. Also, be able to paint the rollcage.
