The baseline model was so plain until I put $$ to fix it up. Plus with a bigger model I am assuming there is more space inside and trunk space.

The lighter weight of the 328i, which I assume it is, makes it fun at the track and very nimble around the streets.

I get between 24-33 mpg just as the literature states and that's with aftermarket tires and a tune, etc.
i never thought of it as a diesel sound- sounds more like a boxer engine like the subaru WRXs..cool sound!!
