Prices are sort of aligned with what I can get a Crossfire for & would be serviceable by the local BMW dealer in my area (if &/or when required). Got my eye on a couple.
All the Bimmer guys/gals I know advised me to avoid the V8's and stick with the 3 liter L6 engines.
I got 33 MPG on the 120 mile drive back home from the dealer
( The 8 speed automatic is also really smooth )
