| Re: Official: BMW E90/E91 Facelift Thread ^^ Awesome stuff buddy!! I decided to configure my own new 3er as well (and I don't know German either).Here's what my dream 3er would be: I naturally would have gone for a white exterior, but I thought I'd try and find another colour which looked great...and I think I found me one!

 | Re: Official: BMW E90/E91 Facelift Thread ^ ... and 5er, 6er, X5 and soon new Z4  The answer is no, sadly. I guess it was too expensive for BMW to completely rework the electronics for the shifter for a 'mere' facelift. The old gearlever is operated mechanically, and the new one is drive-by-wire, electric.

| Re: Official: BMW E90/E91 Facelift Thread Im sure I saw an official press release pic with the 7speed 335 fitted with that shifter? I guess its exclusively for the 335's then?

| Re: Official: BMW E90/E91 Facelift Thread ^ You're right, but it's only for the 335i coupé and cabrio so far. the DKG is not available for the 335i sedan yet I believe. The regular Steptronic automatic transmission is the same as before in all 3er models.

 I never had problems with the paddle shifters, it's something that you will get use to. I'd say go get a test drive from your local dealers, nothing can be said better than actually driving the car.  | |

| Re: Official: BMW E90/E91 Facelift Thread New issue of autobild has E90 FCI and B8 A4 side by side:  For all the classiness of the Audi's design I like the innovative look of the Bimmer oceans more. |

Another concern from my thick head: are those paddle shifters really 100% ergonomically correct?
