Maaannnnnn, There was a 4.8 sitting at the dealer the same time I got my truck. However, being completely new to the BMW/German scene and a student to which the truck was only intended to get me to an from school, the 4.8 seemed a bit....excessive. Dont get me wrong I definitely love my 3.0 for what it is, and the fact It doesnt come with some of the big repair bills that are associated with the higher end models; its just the lack of serious power and noise!
