The Euro-spec 3.0 diesel is supposedly "new" which makes me wonder what they changed. Emissions technology? Internals?

Not sure about 335d because there is no F30 335d even in EU right now but we should get 330d. It will be similar to E90 335 in performance. If all is well I plan to upgrade myself to F30 330d or FXX X1 30d as soon as they are available. I dont know if I could live with 320d or 325d.
Abt fuel prices I think as soon as elections are over we will see diesel cheaper than regular gas. There is no way they can contain gas prices so low anymore.
