This!!!

When i test drove one I noticed this and once i took delivery I can definitely confirm it. It seems mostly on WOT straight line sort of situations. I actually was wondering if it was the rev matching trying to match revs but not doing so fast enough and causing that little hiccup.

Funny I havent thought about this little anomaly in over a week despite searching high and low on the post for any info on the 6MT and the rev matching. All indications are that it is the same unit as in the F30 335s - does anyone know if the gearing is the same? Like you said i think this is simply due to a subconscious adjustment to shifting style.
