BMW should have kept their non-turbo 3L for the base model in their heavier vehicles, but everyone is doing the 4 cyl turbo at the expense of higher maintenance costs of a turbo motor. |

well, BMW lists the X3 35i as 19 city/ 26 highway and the 28i as 19 city/25 highway. So the only advantage to getting the 28i was the price is lower than the 35i...

Agreed, even the 28i with a 4cyl, the difference in mpg vs the 35i is relatively small. |

When I said the 2011 did not have a 4cyl, I assumed people would know it was only offered with a 6cyl, but thanks for taking the time to look it up and post your findings.
