Any news? F30 330d

[petrivanzyl]

Anyone heard any news about the f30 330d other than "second quarter 2012"?

No news yet on the 330d, but I hope they bring in the 335d too raise:

335d will be my next move, if it does come out. Otherwise, probably go into the 5 series (E60 M5)..

:nonono:

Im in the future again!

The 335d is going to be quite something and I hope it finds its way to SA. Holding thumbs for all your diesel aficionados.

 

[petrivanzyl]

[frikkieh]

[petrivanzyl]

Twin turbo 4 pot was around for a while. Initially introduced in the previous 1 series as the 123d, but we never saw it locally :thumbdo:

[herr bmw]

i have seen 4 523i's on the road and on bmw website they mention the 523i but no prices

Here are the specs (320d vs 330d comparisson):

I want two - badly :argh:

Get this:

BMW 330 d.
This new model is marked by maximum power and fuel efficiency. It
features a BMW TwinPower Turbo six-cylinder in-line diesel engine that
combines CommonRail direct injection with a turbocharger with variable
turbine geometry. The engine produces an output 190 kW 258 hp)
available from just 2000 rpm as well as 560 Nm of torque. Acceleration
from 0 to 100 km/h takes 5.6 seconds. Average fuel consumption is just
4.9 litres per 100 km, and CO2 emissions average just 129 g/km.

If this model is at maximum power and efficiency, will the propabilities to chip & tune still be there?

Looks like mass production gets to maximum efficiency after all ? :thinking:

My sales guy also mentioned that the new 330d will be 190kw..... And should be as quick as the 335i... Hence they anticipate the 335i will be booster further to ensure it remains on top...So now would not be a good time to get a 335i.....

Surely you could just ask BMW to flash your car to the latest software, being that the engine is the same platform that the F30 335i is built around? Unless they decide to be nobs and deny an upgrade.

so now maybe the naysayers can understand why those with remapped 330d's tell such outrageous race tales.. (remapped 330d's put out close to 190kw on the flywheel..)

[netercol]

will have to sell my soul if they sell the 335d local.. i simply must have one..

 

[petrivanzyl]

The question remain which versions are coming to SA and when...

 

[skiet]

I heard 335d wont be coming to SA only 330d.

So get a 535d with a few km's on then.. :inlove:
