Default The new BMW 530

Hey, my dad is thinking of getting the new BMW 530i. Have anyone here driven it? How does it compare to the 530d?
My dad has never had a diesel, and I think he should reconsider which type of 530 he's buying.
I would rather that he get a 530d. If look at the numbers (from BMW) on acceleration while driving, and I think it's very impressive!!
The figures on 0-100 km/h is not bad either. What would you choose?

80-120 km/h in fifth gear
530i: 10 sek
530d: 6,7 sek

80-120 km/h in fourth gear
530i: 7,3 sek
530d: 5,4 sek

0-100 km/h
530i: 6,9
530d: 7,1

But the thing is, I wondered if it's possible to get a exhaust with a bit more "sporty" sound?
Even if it's a diesel, I have heard that it is possible to get, but where??
