I was hoping we would at least get the 40d - proven and tested elsewhere, but the US.
Current 35d is pretty awesome and above the rest in the US, but I have the feeling the competition (MB, VW, Audi) will catch up pretty soon.
I am sure F15 will get the new diesel. 40d did not come to US as BMW was working on the tri-turbo, and not worth the effort to legalize the 40d for US when its successor is down the pipe.
