n20 engine is getting some good reviews on the X1's, 528's and the Z4 2.8i's.
I drove an x1 for 4 months as a company car and it was a blast. The 8 speed transmission with more torque and more hp then the outgoing n52 it was certainly zippy.
Grips: sliiight lag... and I mean very slight compared to the instant power of the n52.
- sounded like a diesel... very tingy. The n52 sounded very good under load.
You shouldn't be disappointed if you think the n52 moves the X3 enough... the n20 will be slightly faster and better
