I love the 35i. Totally different vehicle than the 2010 normal six was. I also like the updated look and iDrive. All well worth it in my opinion. Put the 35i in the tranny sport mode and the thing is amazing.
I'm not a diesel guy, the idle rattle and lag didn't work for me. But the diesel is also a great option and I respect those who like it. Completely personal preference.
The new Jeep looks nice (as does the Explorer). I'm going to drive both soon (love driving new cars). Jeep scares me a bit being first year and a radical redesign. Still great to see competition to keep BMW honest.

Agreed, the competition is best for all of us, owners, aspiring and the others. While the Jeep has all the features and more of the BMW for a significant sum less, sometimes the sum of the parts does not always equal the whole. Just have to figure out the personal preference and benefit of the whole.
