That's OK with me, as DI usually provides better low end torque, and fuel economy. Both things the 328 could use.
Aha! Great point. I'm back to hopeful, bordering on optimistic again.

230 ponies in the 128i is enough to give me an enjoyable, spirited drive in the way I'll use the car everyday. And the 200 lb/ft of torque was good enough in the 3er, so it'll probably be very good in the 1er. But if I were going to ask for help anywhere, it would be in the torque department. If they could give me 230/220 engine, I'd be thrilled.
