Canadian Annual Fuel Costs based on 20,000 KM, Premium Gas at $1.099 c/L, Diesel at $1.169/L (pricing in my city today) and based on BMW.ca Consumption figures.
35i 9.6L/100 KM: $2110.08 per year
35d 7.6L/100 KM: $1776.88 per year
and just for fun 50i 12.2L/100 KM: $2681.56 per year
Diesel saving per year: $333.20 or $27 a month or 4.5 Years to save $1500.
Agreed that the financial benefit of the diesel fuel economy is a wash. Comes down to a personal choice as there is no clear winner economically.
