Having a bmw turbo petrol engine in the NA market is an excellent thing.
I`m not afraid about the long term reliability....just look at the turbodiesel engines in Europe
I prefer a 3.0L turbo over a 3.5L NA because of the torque and the feeling it gives you at low rpm
when I compare my 325i to a 1.8Turbo VW GTI I have to say that the GTI feels faster AT LOW REV (under 3500rpm)
It gives you an impressive sensation of acceleration and an immediate response (which might be too brutal for some people but not for me)
The only thing we need to know at that point is.....the price of this baby
If they just move from 330i to 335i at the same price this car will kill the competition......but I highly doubt they will just drop the 330i......I thing 335i will cost much more than 330i
