Unless You Want The "5" Badge Of Course
Funny, because besides the M models, regular BMWs have almost never been about raw power, but now suddenly even the regular BMW models are supposed to be all about raw power? Since when?

Anyways, what do both of these cars have in common? They'll both get the snot beat out of them by American V8 muscle for half the price and aren't really "fast" in the first place. Heck, my Toyota isn't too far off of these 0-60 times. If speed is what you want, what's the point of buying a 50k "slow" BMW whether its petrol or diesel? If speed is really what I wanted I'd just go buy a Camaro SS or a new Mustang GT 5.0, but since it isn't I'm looking forward to picking up a lowly N52 powered 528i prior to the end of the model year.
