it has almost 300 lbs of torque!!. Tune it a bit make it produce 220-250hp with 400lbs of torque and I am a very happy person

Like he said "THE gentleman's car".
I wonder how difficult it would be to import one?

you guys are crazy wanting the 220d!
I gladly paid 20k more to get a 250 here instead.
theres probably 30 is220d for every 250 here.
220d owners has reported several problems with the injectors, horrible gearing / ratio and gear-box, and let me tell you , its quite slower than the 250 stock...
