actual 0-60 times might say otherwise, BMW claims 5.1 on the 335i and 5.3 on this one, actual tests might show them as the same, remember the hybrid will have extra weight.

also not sure its minimum gain on MPG, 39 combined average is a pretty major gain over the 335i which gets about 26 combined (50% gain).

Granted driving 12,000 miles at $4/gallon in the US means you save $600/year, so it would take a long time to make up for the extra cost...
