It s what dunkel says.

If i testdrive a 1 series supersport CSL with proberly a turbo engine. I want the exact the same instant throttle feel when i lift off and go on the throttle midbent like i have in my M high rev atmo engine right now.

If i test drive one and it doesn t do it like i am used to have from ///M i will def. not spend any of my money on that because i am not driving something which does not give me the ultimate fun factor.

I am not some kind drag racer which want tons of nm and horse power. For me a car has to do with balance from the chassis and also fantastic engine response. ZERO LAG. Any lag is dissapointing in fun in driving.

You need to be able to steer the car with the throttle that means a perfect pedal response to the engine otherwise it s not possible to do that. I have never driven a turbo which can do that so nicely as bmw ///M engines non turbo can!!!!!

And you don t want a big nm turbo hike midbent when youre on the limit.

6 Series Convertible -> softtop (alleged the same as the E64)

About the E93-successor I've unfortantely no information.

The 6er will receive a three piece folding hardtop similar to the 3er as BMW see the need for the 6er to be seen as a more premium luxury cross-continent sports GT and the hardtop will enable BMW to position it as such against premium key rivals. Porsche and Mercedes-Benz.

When the 3er sieries is closed it is not vrery nice,yet the 6er will lose his atraktive sexy softtop too. Mercedes is premium too but they put in the e-class cabrio a softtop.And Porsche dint have a folding hardtop and is a premium brand too.
very sad...... =(

i'm really excited about the Z2
sounds like an awesome little roadster

but I'm curious, is there a connection between the MINI Speedster and the Z2 or is the MINI Speedster a MINI Cabrio styled like a roadster ?

will the x5 active hybrid get the same hybrid drivetain as the x6 active hybrid or will it get the active hybrid drivetrain to be used in the 7er active hybrid?

X5 and X6 will share the same drivetrain, Which will be a full hybrid.
7er is a mild hybrid .

Any chance of a Super Sport or Performance package 3-Series coming out in the near term? Is such a option under consideration?

Thanks,
Leif W.

Isn't the X5 facelift/LCI coming next year? New engines for X5 line-up with facelift?

Scott hi,

I have a question for you.

Rumor has it that the X1 has front double-wishbones. Is that true?

They also say that the new 1er will be based on that chassis and will also have double wishbones?

Is any of this true?

thx!
