I know that I'm part of a small US target market and BMW doesn't care what I think - but I will say that if they offered this vehicle as a 335 xDrive, it would be a top contender for my next ride. As a 328, I probably will never consider one.
I agree that $57 large is a LOT, but you say you wouldn't even consider it because it's a 328. Have you driven a 328? It's freakin' brilliant.

I built a wagon on the site too. It came out to $54,XXX... really expensive, but my biggest grip is that I don't want or need X Drive! If the F31 came standard with RWD and offered X Drive as an option then the base price would be lower and I (anyone) could build a really nice wagon for closer to $50K. I paid $48 for my well optioned F30 M Sport and would happily pay a little more for a maxed out F31.
