Prius... my next car after E60 would be Prius or similar car, for the sake of environment. Hopefully BMW will make one.
The new diesel Mini only does 3.9l/100kml, which is much much much better than any Hybrid out there. I don't understand why people are jumping on the bandwagon just because some movie stars drive Prius. Geez, what makes a movie star a good role model? The drinking, partying, drug-taking?

People who drive small diesels drive them because they feel it is better for their pocket.
I drive a large diesel because it's better for its torque!

Sorry, I do not care about MPG nor do I like hybrids. 335i is tempting but it's not the best looking car available.
Or then, get a Toyota Camry...
