I'm from Finland so it is not "our" site.
I speak several languages but the www.bmw.se (Sweden) is one of the best BMW sites in Europe.
Follow my step:
1) www.bmw.se
2) Under the topic Media you find "Nyheter"
3) Under the topic Produktnyheter you can find the link
"Elegans n?r den ?r som b?st: Nya BMW 3-serie Coup?" dated the 26th of April
The news has actually been edited since I read it the first time.

I'm following you. I know where you're from. I just didn't know if you had your own country site, or if you were made to share the market information within the region under another country site - specifically the one you always mention. I made the assumption that you don't have a site for your country mainly because you always seem to reference the .se site. I figured it was "yours". I don't really see how my use of a word "your" should be a point of discussion here. Unless of course you want to paint me as the idiot American...
I did follow to the area -assuming it was the "news" or "media" section and I read it. I edited my post above before you posted your reply to me, but you wouldn't have seen that while you were composing.

Hmmm... remember that a US gallon is 80% of other gallons.

Calculations made with US Gallon.
1 US Gallon is 3.785 litres.

Glad that the correct info was found!
English is only my third language so sometimes my words and expression might go wrong.
The EU is not as a solid continent as North America (US and Canada).
BMW has own sites for all EU languages (more than 15)
and they are somewhat independencly updated.
The Finnish BMW.fi -site is always after its time :thumbsdown:

Yeah, I wasn't sure how granular the site breakouts were in EU. Glad to know a good source of data I can pick through. Wasn't too hard to figure out the interesting bits.
Thanks for pointing out the new info.

I found this tool:
http://www.guycroft.clara.net/utils/mpgfromk.html
Gives you MPG for Imperial gallons as well as US gallons. Riracing was correct as he accounted for the proper type of gallon.

Thanks UUronL.
There's a wide world outside the US and lots of academic knowledge.
Not all of us wants to make a war about it

Yes, not many Americans make it outside the country very often, and then most only travel to a small set of scripted tourist destinations. Those who have attempted to estimate the percentage of Americans who own passports have made claims ranging from 7% to 25%, so I guess some of the preconceptions about us are probably fair. I have been lucky enough to experience the world far outside that realm, but I could certainly see more.
Thanks again.
