Hi, I've just joined the forum after having been a silent reader for months. I've just ordered a 320d executive, sparkling graphite, sunroof and rear PDCs, $70000 on road. The dealer told me this is $5000 off the undiscounted price. It looks quite good to me on paper. I should be getting it in 2 weeks.

I test drove it first, and the demo had only 200km on it. It is certainly a lot quicker than the petrol 320i. However the power delivery is very linear, rather than a big "ooomph". So it gathers speed quite rapidly but you don't get the shove in the back that you might expect with a fat torque.
