How many people in the US would buy the X5 M50D?
I know i'd drop 100-110k in a heartbeat if we could get one here. Anyone else? Its a shame we can't have it here

Don't get me wrong though, N57D30S1 is a beautiful and very technological engine - probably the best out there now. But an M is an M... I don't know anything about the cool factor of a diesel in EU (maybe in America, dunno). And the sound of petrol engines with exhausts like Meisterschaft... well, let me put it this way: when I'm in Sport or Sport+ on M50d I have nice artificial sounds inside, but as soon as I roll the windows down... |

I will buy a petrol over a diesel any given day. Not that I don't love diesels. I do. But I'd buy one only if I am doing more than 40-50k miles a year on family trips. With 10k miles a year gasoline is actually cheaper here in EU as you pay premium both for the vehicle and the fuel afterwards.

Very likely I would get the 40d or 50d.

If the 50i and the 50d were within a "few" bucks of each other, I would look at the 50d, but I wouldn't spend $100,000+ on one, no way.
If that was the case just buy a 50I and get a tune! |
