Guess you didn't know that different engines are offered outside the US market. How's that self-centric worldview working out for you?

You mean BMW offers the 330i still, in other countries?
I have a 2006 330i, but since 2007 only the 328i and 335i are offered here in the US.

Sorry if I offended you - I guess I should have known what every other country offers before posting.

Pick any even number between 18 and 35 and BMW probably offers it somewhere. Hyperbole, but they do make a lot of engine sizes.

Yep, BMW thought a 330 in the US market would be too close in horsepower to the 335 and cut into sales. Actually, the 230 HP 328i is more than enough HP in my opinion. So, hard then to understand why in other markets they kept it. Go figure.
