The resale of the X5d and fuel mileage (I'd save $680 a year) is a nice plus. Though I'm sure resale will take a pretty big hit if the 45d with 354HP and 500+lb torque comes out in the fall. But realistically at $70k I'll need to keep this vehicle 7 years to make any fiscal sense out of it. Which I really don't see as a problem doing.
50i will probably have better resale as not everyone wants diesel.

On another thought, add another $5k and get a gently used X5 M, that will have best resale value.
