The BMW is GREAT....960 miles.......28 mpg w/AC.....Got it with 1 mile on it.......wait till it gets broken in should easily do 35mpg...gets 24.5 around town.. will post more soon................did factory tour in detail, from piece of sheet metal............to driving it off the dyno !!!! amazing, and my wife and I had a M3 to race on the BMW test track....DCT was UNBELIEVABLE we had the track just about to ourselves...we ran the tires off the M3....so much different than the M5, around 500 lbs lighter.........more agile.

Congrats, Greg... I bet it was a blast. I've not been to the PC since they expanded out back.

UFH -

Now that you've had the X35D a few months, any further notes/thoughts/comments on how you like it? I test drove the diesel today and enjoyed it but am left wondering what a real enthusiast feels about it after living with it a while.

TIA.
