Ok for 3.0sd. Any info about 3.5i?

Does somebody know if we can expect also the launch of a petrol twin turbo? (X5 3.5, 300hp - same engine planned for X6?). Thank you.

I wouldn't hold your breath. It's quite some way away I believe

Do you belive it's not under development?

It's under development but as has been posted elsewhere will appaer in the X6 first. The engine is apparently in very short supply across the BMW range, the 535i still hasn't been released in Europe yet. I would say some time in 2008 at the earliest.

Ok, hopefully in first quarter 2008....I feel confident on clevers MKT strategy by BMW.
Thank you for your reply.
