If these come in under $33k I'll be seriously looking into trading. Thats a serious torque improvement over my N52.

Not in a 3-series is my guess. This little 4 banger will base no less than $39k. Current base for x-drive 320i is $34k and $38.8k for 328i. Factor in similar TQ to 328 and the annual price increases.

Also factor in the pricier diesel engine.

Waiting for this:

Would this be cool or what? But we'll never see it in the USA likely. Or am I being pessimistic? How would you like to drop that engine in a 3-series.

Yup, sad.

Looks like less power for North America:

A 535d model will be the first U.S. model to make use of a new twin-turbo diesel I-6, expected to produce around 255 hp and 413 lb-ft., when it enters production this summer

I want the 3-series Touring with the M550d engine since we're daydreaming.

igom3 · 03-12-2013, 06:25 PM

But is so nice to day dream!

Quasimodem · 03-12-2013, 09:25 PM

Wot? No F11 535d?

The best reason to go with a 5 over a 3 is if you need bigger interior, and the F11 would be bigger (internal ******* than a F10. But of course the Germans think 'mericans all drive SUVs.

Quasi its the BMWoA that determines which car comes over here remember BMW is a status quo car here in this side of the pond!!! may I say correctly USA
