Not really as they did test the 320d which is not defined as a 'real' sport car...
(good engine, the best diesel engine in its class, forecasted sales 75% of the 3series)

That said, I'm pretty sure that they will test the 330i in the future as that one needs to be compared to other players on the market

Can't wait to see the 330 reviewed... or better yet, the M3 :rocks:

Though I for one would love to see an e90 methodically exercised on the track, I'm glad they didn't give the 320d a run for it's money on some high-speed course. It's not a track car for one. The 330i can be, however, and I'd expect it to burn rubber when it gets reviewed.

The video's what I wanted to see: a moderate introduction, how comfortable of a ride it was, the opinion of a driver who's taken it a few hundred miles for a test, and the tease that though this is a diesel, it pars with a petrol.
