I was out for dinner in our new E70 X5 and saw 3 other E70s parked at the restaurant. As I left i noticed the badge on the black one with dealer plates said 3.0d on the side!!!! I am a diesel fanatic and went nuts. I think it must be on loan from BMW to the dealer as a test vehicle or something. It was US spec with side marker reflectors. It was definately a diesel because the exhaust pipes were different than the 3.0Si or 4.8.
Can anyone here explain why I saw a us Spec diesel here yesterday. The dealer tells me that the 3.0d is one year away.
Thanks!!
