But me, I'll take the torquier 6-cyl if there's ever the choice. A 335xd wagon would be my perfect ride. I know I'll never see it tho, so I won't get too hung-up on it.</p> Eh, I know a lot of folks want this engine. But me, I’ll take the torquier 6-cyl if there’s ever the choice.

That is efficient dynamics - that is a wonderful engine. Horsepower, torque, and close to 60mpg on the highway. The 123d would be great, but X1 wouldn't be bad.</p> <p>That X1 is a jacked up version of the current wagon - I imagine it handles better than a subaru outback though. It will be a sad day when the wagon goes away.</p> Finally. That is efficient dynamics – that is a wonderful engine. Horsepower, torque, and close to 60mpg on the highway.

That X1 is a jacked up version of the current wagon – I imagine it handles better than a subaru outback though. It will be a sad day when the wagon goes away.

A diesel X1 is what would interest me, either a turbodiesel 4-cylinder or even a 6-cylinder.</p> Agreed, Michael.

What's the reason again for the delay in the X1? It will be almost 2 years old before it's available here.</p> Can’t wait. What’s the reason again for the delay in the X1?
