Those are a joke so no worries! You should be able to pull more than one car length to 60? I ran one from 140-205km and totally destroyed it!

You'll be glad to know my 2k2 also beat a 330ci It wasn't easy from light to light but i beat him nevertheless. He was pis*** though.

Is that the 2.5l L-6? With an automatic? Who orders BMW's with automatics? (BMW has reworked their designations for the engines)

Hey, are we going to get the BMW guys over here complaining now? Do they waste their time like the Acura guys do?
