I'd def pick the 4.8i over the 3.0si. You can do a search for the rather lengthy debate, but I drove the 4.8i at the Ultimate Driving event and felt it's really the best way to go. The acceleration felt appropriate and adaquate for a mid $50k luxury vehicle. If I couldn't afford the 4.8i, I'd likely go for an X3, which has the same 3.0si version and engine but is half a ton lighter.

I'd do a 3.0 if I were buying one.

I'll be curious to see sales, if and when a diesel makes its way to the US.

i have the 3.0 i don't feel the need for speed when driving a SUV...if you want to go fast, buy a sports car. also i wouldn't like to donate my money to OPEC.

3.0 is just fine....I have all the power I need.
except that time a Toyota Pickup beat me from a red light to a lane reduction...that was embarrassing.

4.8 is what I have. No real just because you have an SUV not to enjoy some power also. Gas costs but you already spent a few $$ and are using prem anyway. Othewise I would just get a hybrid.

4.8i here. Drove the 3.0, but seemed like it was working too hard under my normal driving habits/speeds, and the sound of that 4.8 when it fires up is very rewarding. The 3.0TT gas would have also been a consideration to at least see if the power was sufficent had it been available, but since it was not, the 4.8i was the way to go without a doubt.
