Again with the 3.0 liter 325i. I wish someone would confirm which it is.

"The 325i is powered by a 3.0-litre engine with a new magnesium crankshaft making 215-horsepower and 185 lb.-ft. of torque. Like all BMW six-cylinder engines, it's an inline cylinder configuration mounted longitudinally.

The 330i (which we drove at the press introduction) is equipped with the same 3.0 litre engine, but with a different intake and computer management system. It makes 255-horsepower and 220 lb.-ft torque."

Yes it is true, the 325i will have the same 3.0 liter engine that is in the 330i.

it is indeed, and cool place too (website www.cac.es). I see it almost every day (I live a few minutes away) and despite that I still find it amazing.

You should have seen that area ten years ago

Have to wonder if the power/torque numbers provided by BMW for the 325i are understated to help sell the 330i model.
