A 320d or 323d with 45+mpg would be a much more enticing option to American buyers. Lots of people around here drive BMWs but don't care about acceleration, I've heard plenty of people say their 328i is more power than they ever needed...not everyone is an enthusiast like the people on this forum.

100% agreed! Hell the 116d in Europe is good for 53 MPG.
I would think they could get 50 MPG out of 4-cylinder diesel in the new 3-series. BRING IT ON BABY. Again wake up Munich Marketing. BTW any job openings for people that understand the U.S. buyer?
