They have it in coupe form in Europe only.
Another amazing discovery tonight. I put my Jack Johnson CD in (13 tracks). I was listening to a couple songs and then ejected it. I noticed the music was still playing! I then switched through the tracks and found out all 13 tracks were recorded onto the hard drive. Pretty nifty! Now I don't even need to carry CD cases, flash drives, etc..in the car with me.
I also decided to drive as economically as possible across town. I was still able to eek out 30mpg. I will do some more testing to see how long I can sustain this in the city. Of course if I drive like I normally do, I would get far worse than the 23mpg city EPA rating. But what I found is if you short shift (which the diesel works perfectly with), and keep the RPMs between 1500-2000 max, you can truly see the MPG gauge over 30 at times. It seems by the readings while coasting, even at a really slow speed, the mpg is much higher than it is in my gas 335i. Which leads me to believe, at idle this car simply takes less fuel. Truly an amazing car.
