Just read this in BMW Car magazine about the E90 330d
"In comparison to the 330i the 330d is a tad slower to 62mph... but the 330d's flexibility simply knocks spots off the 330i - 50-75mph is a whole second and a half faster in the 330d. An E90 330d is as quick as an E46 M3 CSL over that 50-75mph segment!"
That's some impressive #'s!
I'll scan the review of the 330d and post it sometime tonight/tomorrow.
