Quite a jump from a z4
Clearly I'm in the wrong line of work.

These are just great, despite how they look they actually have a pretty smooth ride too.
My brother got one at launch, sold it after 3 years but regretted it so much he bought a Spyder a few months later!

I was going to get the manual after reading the reviews othe R Tronic but I test drive the R Tronic and fell in live with the flappy paddles. It's rubbish in auto when in sport mode but for driving in traffic the standard auto mode is great, and in manual mode with sport mode on too it's actually very good. I've discovered the accelerator has two 'full down' positions though - one where you think it's full down and another if you push even harder, almost like there's a second switch in the floor. When in manual mode if you put your foot to the floor the box will drop down a gear on its own if you aren't in the right rev range for maximum acceleration. Bit annoying at first but it's just a case I getting used to it and then it's great :-D
