X5 40d

Im thinking about pulling the trigger on a 40d.

I currently have an M3 and 30d x5 (2009).

Anyone here went from 30d to 40d that can tell me if it was worth it for you?

Yes its a big jump in power, its even a big jump from a 30d to a 35d, the 40d was given some extra Nm of torque above the 35d and the pressure in the rail and injectors are beefed up.

Your probably talking about a good 100nm more torque than your old 30d.

As you can see Im not into modding at all - I never purchase a BMW with the standard trimmings - I always take sport pack / dynamic / etc. That way I feel that the car stays classy without looking boring.
