Btw, 0-100 time for N20 528 is 6.3s. The figs u saw at BMWUK is for 0-60mph. Sorry, for MY12 535i it's 5.9s not 5.7s. Info from BMW press pack (page 15 on doc re 9/2011 product updates). The 6.8s for N52 is from one of those price sheets BMWHK gave out. It may or may not be wrong as some info given out are incorrect (e.g. the original spec gave torque of N53 & not N52). Quote:
Don't think there's much weight diff between N52 & N53, only marginal diff. |

The main reason is due to fuel quality in USA. They can't run some of the DI modes & so they decide not to sell them there b4 they get things sorted out. The M272 V6 engines fitted to markets outside of EU are billed as "low fuel quality version", hence they don't have DI & output is 272ps/350Nm vs 292ps/365Nm.
