GLE300d vs. GLE350

My wife and I are in the market for a GLE and was wondering if anyone has gone thru the analysis on diesel vs. gas model. I used to have a E350 Bluetec and loved it, great gas mileage and plenty of torque. However, I am kind of on the fence when it comes the GLE since I feel the car is quite underpowered with the 4 cylinder diesel so I am still deciding before I pull the trigger. Does anyone have the pros and cons when comparing the two? I really wish that MB stuck with 6 cylinder diesel in the GLE and in that case that would be a no-brainer for me. Any opinions would be great appreciated.

I have a 300d on order. Test drove one and knew it was for me. High torque, great pick up and amazing mpg. At any price per gallon, I like to get the best mpg. It's more ecologically correct. Just my two cents.
