pfbz is on a distinguished road
Plenty of diesel X5 apologists. That's fine, go your own way and be happy. For me, until they introduce the 40d with the eight speed, the diesel is the third choice engine in the 2011/2012 BMWUSA X5 lineup.

The smell I was referring to is the smell of diesel fuel itself... Yes, I have a diesel. F350. Just touching the diesel pump leaves a stink on your hands if you don't wear gloves.

As for "real world performance", you are totally believing your own BS if you think the 35d will outperform the 35i in any measurable performance category.

I know diesel defenders think that EPA is "unfair" in their testing... real world vs. actual, etc., but certainly it is more meaningful and accurate then individuals saying things like "I get 22 mpg every fill up..."
