The thing with the 35i is that the engine feels special. When I drove an X1 28i, I was very impressed with the performance of the 4-cylinder turbo but couldn't get my head around how "normal" it felt and sounded. Just didn't feel like you were really getting the special experience that a BMW inline 6 delivers. Just my opinion from driving both engines in different SUVs.
Test drove the X1 also with the 4 cyl turbo. I couldnt understand what the Rep. what telling me in the car. Very noisy engine. When i test drove the 35i in sport mode, i was sold.
