I wouldnt go for diesel b/c I dont drive enough to care about its MPG, I dont care for the distinct sound it makes, it doesnt appeal to me for 2011 being that is seems outdated compared to the 40d and I lease my suvs and the diesel program is very bad.

Side note, I have a 7 and 4 year old... a car seat and booster seat in the 911 is all you need. They actually prefer the 911 over the x5 but they only get to ride in it rarely (nothing farther then a few minutes away - ice cream, beach, park etc) so maybe that's the reason.
