all is here. They feature the new lighter 3litre diesel blocks:
330d is 231bhp
335d is 286bhp with 580nm from 1750rpm, and in true tradition it is auto only
0-100km/h for the 335d is 6.1s, so around half a second quicker than the 535d
eu cycle is 37.7mpg

Wow! 27 kilos is quite alot isn't it? I mean from the engine only. Not that the upgraded car will be slightly quicker in a straight line but probably it will handle a bit better with the nose slightly lightened up.
Mid-2007 is a long wait though! :thumbsdown:
