Hey all,
Just sold my 07 Stang GT. We have a baby on the way so it was either the Stang or the 328i.
Anyway, I'm beginning to rediscover the Bimmer. I tried the DS function with the Steptronic Tranny and the car definitely feels quicker. Does turning off the traction control on a dry day make a difference in performance? I did it religiously in my mustang.
As far as the manual shifting goes with the Steptronic... where is the powerband in the 328i. In my mustang it was 3100 rpm to redline at 6500 rpm. Does this car really go to 8K??
