It reaffirmed my longstanding belief that BMW reads these boards and sometimes even reacts to these boards in a direct way.  |
It freaked me out because I had JUST GOTTEN RID OF my manual F80 and had signed a two year lease on my CS, all under the presumption that it was just temporary.
Remember that crazy email/survey they sent to us, asking us in 10 different ways how the lack of 6MT would impact our willingess to purchase future cars from them?
