I admit that it would be tempting at that price difference, but if i was going to spend an extra $5k for an engine, it would be in a 3 series.

I could take the $6k "Premium Package Enhanced" (Canada) out and get the engine but I would be giving up a long list of features including: GPS and larger screen, power hatch, comfort access, HK audio, Pano roof, Xenon lights, "X-Line", roof rails, reverse camera, front and rear park assist, and more, but that leaves it as a fast, spartan car. I'll take all that over an extra 60hp in a CUV.

Don't get me wrong - if money weren't a factor, I'd take the 6 for sure. But this is the real world and money is a factor.
