I must say the 8 speed when down shifting felt very close to a DCT, rev matching. I am wondering if there is some advancements to the system as all of the 328s I have drive did not do this.

Was it good? I have never had turkey that was good, unless drenched in copious condiments. But when that happens, it's the turkey that becomes the condiment.

I've heard bad things about the 435 from a friend of mine who owned a non-sport 335i, and now owns a brand new M3 and has driven my 335is many times.

He said the interior quality was horrible and that the 335is is still on a different level performance wise.

I guess I'll have to test it myself... But I'm really more interested in the M3/M4

lol the car was pretty impressive however my test drive was not the type of test drive I would have experience if the sales man was not sitting next to me

Anyone have information on the advancements I felt with the 8 speed?
