For bragging rights and the traffic light grand prix the horsepower wins - but damn that torque is addictive. (Id swap for a 550i if i could have one though)

The argument should compare a 540i to a 540d (in the US). Getting a 530i comes closer to being as economical as a diesel but not really in mpg's. PL |

Very exciting. Good move BMW. Now just wish we could get a rear wheel drive 540d with the suspension of the M550. And bring the wagon. Would be a nice market share grabber.

Please continue to spread this message because unfortunately diesels aren't depreciating as much as I'd like. Not BMWs, who continue to produce new models, and definitely not MBs or Audis. The latter companies' diesels aren't depreciating at all. But hey, they're garbage and must age poorly. |

For those who like to live at gas stations, trade their cars in early, rev up the motor to get a good vroom vroom sound, hey, gassers are great.
My 535d gets a steady 36 mpg overall and feels bulletproof. Over 500 miles to get to 1/8 of a tank. The engine purrs. The transmission doesn't hunt for gears due to the massive torque. PL |

Here in Europe it's 5.4 sec 0-100 km/h and that's 0-62 mph.

Thank you Baily for that clarification. Do they test the gas/petrol versions in the same way?
