About to buy -questions

[sbonder]

What is the general satisfaction level with the 35d? I drove it for a 15 minute test drive and liked it. Never had a diesel, so have some general concerns like fuel availability. Does the Nav have a diesel finder on the 35d?

Active steering -worth it? My two x5 test drives did not indicate a need for active steering. but, i did not parallel park or have it for a long day in city traffic.

sound system- i listen to talk radio and on some vehicle (the mdx test drive for example) i had a hard time hearing what people were saying. when i do listen to music, i am not an audiophile. any thoughts on the sound system? is the premium worth it?

i realize these are all personal preference type questions, but the voice of experience would help me decide. your thoughts would be appreciated on these topics.
