Thanks for separating by D and I

Edit:
I am going to say this carefully...it is only an observation....

I am surprised to read that many of the reviewers who drove both cars tended to prefer the d, even with its slower acceleration times!

I do think that gassers and diesels are both great, and both have different merits, and appeal to different buyers. I do hope they eventually bring back some sibling of the 335d though, I wan't a worthy replacement when the time comes!

Garage List
Road & Track review link just posted on Facebook:

"2012 BMW 328i - First Drive
The new 3 Series upholds its reputation as the benchmark sport sedan."

Interestingly, this reviewer said that he drove a car equipped with the M Sport package, but the accompanying photos don't support that (must be stock photos): "For driving enthusiasts, the M Sport package, such as on the car I drove, features aggressive exterior and interior trim. "

I wonder when the full USA tests will come out, i.e. Car&Driver, Insideline, Motortrend, Road&Track. Etc etc. I want to see the USA model tested for performance numbers and what the real weight of the car will be when it is weighted on a scale.

You'll start to see some of them next week when the first round of US F30 press drives kicks off.

Any reviews on the 320i? Not offered in the US, as far as I know, but on sale in Canada.
