BMW told me the exact same reason when I proposed this question to them about 2 months ago. I know the 30d will blow me away but if there is a 35d available not long after it would kill me.

If I get a 35d I plan to add one of these babies to it...

I know I could flash tune the 30d but this is so much easier!
