Diesel Usa ????

I had read previously (within this Forum?) BMW would be starting production in November; though I find nothing on the web confirming this.

Will the 540d ever make it to our shores?

There's a thread on another popular forum where commenters are confirming that their dealers can now place orders on a diesel 5 series. There is confusion about which specific engine will be offered.

I have not seen any threads offering anything. Though I have heard about expect releases. To which are you referring?

We were able to place an order for ED in March. Have a delivery date confirmed and a production number, it's the most positive sign yet that it's coming though we're still keeping our fingers crossed.

Starting halfway down page 5, a few of the posters have their orders placed. Skip the 1st 4.5 pages.
