The only thing I wasn't sure I liked was the extremely featherlight clutch uptake, but I'm sure I would get use to that and I'd prefer light to overly heavy. Especially in traffic.
The only reason I didn't buy it on the spot was that I already have a 2005 Boxster S and I really needed someting that would double as the occasional kid hauler. The rear leg room is just too small for kids to sit comfortably in car seats without having their feet all over the seat back and thus in my spine!
So.....I test drove a fully loaded 545i Sport pack and flipped out.
The E90 is more tossable and more fun overall to drive and a beautifully executed car, but for my current needs the E60 with big, fat, honkin' V8 was the way to go. |
Very cool, I wish I could do that..
