Why does BMW insist on putting it into all of their cars except M-series? Each time I drive a BMW the needle just violently flies from one extreme to another. I understand a need for a resettable "average mpg" digital display but these instantaneous analog gauge is worthless.
As for 320i not having enough punch - duh, that is what 328i for. Same engine just different ECU tuning for much higher HP - kinda what Saab was doing with 9-5 Arcs and Aeros. It is almost identical in price if equipped identically (but 320i has less standard options and hence lower base price).
