jjs 64 Report post Posted June 11, 2008 M3 also has a new twin clutch DCT transmission M3 Sedan interior looks very plain. Not much to distinguish it from its lesser siblings. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mark 178 Report post Posted June 11, 2008 The X6 looks like a jacked-up Prius on steroids. One of the only BMW's I can't stand the look of. And after the E65 that's saying something! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kiwi535 538 Report post Posted June 11, 2008 Was interesting in the workshop.The new system means germany have a real time record of what goes wrong and how it is fixed with every car hooked up to the new testers. Control modules are programmed,software updates can be released for modules that are only 1 day old.Software updates can also make control modules themselves obsolete.Japanese and Singapore cars can be very different from NZ models,and can only be programmed properly in the country of origin. Grays have had cars being programmed for 26 hours!Hence their new multi terra gig server set up Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
