[QUOTE="Jerman, post: 277001, member: 3089"] [FONT=Verdana]bro,[/FONT] [FONT=Verdana]FYI, the 520i 2.2 litre (M54 engine with 170bhp and 210Nm). On paper, the output superseded the previous M52 523i. Putting these numbers aside, I find the power is adequate for most occassions. At start-stop traffic, it felt a little 'draggy' but once on the move, it's effortless and the overall competency of this car is quite unsurpassed. I have tried the 525i (M54 engine, 192bhp and 245Nm) and the extra 'oomph' is always welcome!
