gaberoll: haha, yeah... it's funny, when i originally drove the 2006 330i, I thought it was juts not worth the jump from my E46 330i, because actually the torque/lb was almost identical (2006 is slightly heavier with more torque, so it's a wash). But I now think it was more ideal... 255 HP is just about the right amount, and the torque is low enough that you can wring it out on a mountain road.

I have come to appreciate why M cars have historically been high HP but low torque... that makes them engaging through their entire RPM range.
