This engine and this transmission, together hooked on this chassis....

the whole thing works in beautiful synchro...

This is addicting... no need for translation from french or german... we all got it!

PrinceBarin · 03-09-2012, 04:36 PM

Get some! So cool.

PrinceBarin · 03-09-2012, 04:45 PM

I got 6.3 with my cell phone timer.

PrinceBarin · 03-16-2012, 02:01 AM

Yeah, I rounded down my average from 3 runs to account for my reaction times! I know it's not very scientific but considering BMW's claim of 6.1 for the 328i Auto this is impressive.

Would be good to get a couple more video's to try for each of the engines, 335i, 320i/d etc.

positiveions · 03-17-2012, 03:45 PM

this transmission is so awesome. has a very fast shifting pattern. Man, I'm in love with this car already.

///Matthew · 03-17-2012, 04:16 PM

Very impressive transmission. We've come a long way.

Wolf · 03-17-2012, 04:27 PM

45s to 250kph is not bad

BMW's claim is 5.9 actually. I got 6.2 on my timer but we don't know if the car was in an incline or flat ground. Also, the tank is full which makes the car heavier. Reviewers have gotten 5.6 and that seems plausible.

100km/h=62miles/h fools

OdomPHD · 03-17-2012, 07:27 PM

Mildly surprised. Nice.

EdM5 · 03-17-2012, 07:33 PM

this engine could be a future legend

SomeRandomer123 · 03-17-2012, 07:36 PM

Reviewers times aren't real world really though are they? When I boot it from the M6 Toll Plaza, I'm gonna get the above result

. I ain't gonna brake stand on almost no fuel in 26 degrees C +. 4.5 degrees C also reduces traction as summer tyres do not work as well below 7 degrees C.

M.Suka · 03-17-2012, 07:42 PM

damn still another 2 gears to go!

kwsw · 03-17-2012, 08:34 PM
