I have the X5d and am considering either the 335i or 335d as my next ride. Just struggling with the choice of diesel or gas for a lighter, non-towing car.

I lean towards the 335d over the 335i because I dont run high RPM's on a normal basis but I just wonder if I'll miss the I-6 gas smoothness.

Since the purchase is several years off, I guess I can just wait until the new body is out since Im sure BMW will change everything 5 times by that point. I joke about that, but I took PCD last August and my X is already 2 model years old. :confused:

Guys, thanks for all the help. However, we decided to keep the '01 X5 a bit longer. Instead we will get an M3.
