Agreed. I think it is indeed very weird, but still, since BMW themselves actually also revised the numbers, there must be some truth in there? It is also encouraging to know you're getting such a good mileage at least

lol that'd be so terrible. I think I'm holding out for at least a few more days, I have at least until the end of the month so I can always decide my next step

Not to mention the on demand torque is fantastic. Suspension complaints aside, the F30 is a real performer so far and the mpg has been an added bonus.
Glad to hear some good news as well
