Well in the US the 35i was almost a lock for me because it's really only about $2k more, gets the same MPG as the 28i and is a lot faster. BUT with this new engine that changes things. Looks to be a tad faster than the old engine (still over 0.7 seconds slower than the 35i 0-60) and it will get a ton better MPG than the 35i.
So: 0-60 in 5.5 seconds and 19/26 mpg
Or
0-60 6.3 (guess since BMW said the x1 will do it in 6.1) and 23/32 mpg plus you put $2k in your pocket.
