Monterra, coming from another 128i owner you will be happy with the X1...much more so than the Mazda IMHO. Test drive and see.
Wow never had one be pessimistic that's crazy off. My 128 is consistently within 1mpg but always optimistic. Based strictly on test drives (already had 2 goes at each of them) I know I'll be happier in a basic x1 vs an almost loaded mazda but if I net low 20s on super it will nag me that I could have been sniffing 30 on regular in the no longer anemic 2.5l cx5. That's my quandary.
