About the review requested, you will need to wait a bit longer, I'm not doing much driving these days ....

It takes some learning though with that DCT: the first small push on the gas pedal does not translate into much action, pushing a bit (a bit !!) further gives already reasonable acceleration. Need to learn (again) to drive it sloooow in case it is needed (although this is not what the car was meant to be made for )

Although I know the engine for years now (had the same in my E92 335i), I'm eagerly awaiting for the break-in period to be over so that +4000rpm's are possible ....

Music system is great (took the top-notch version)

Servotronic is different but I find it ok for now

DCT is in 7th gear at 70km/h when going with the flow ... in fact in reasonably dense traffic it is - in D-mode - not so easy to go over 2000rpm ...

This DCT is more aggressive than the one I drove a few months earlier, which was the 'regular' Z4 35i ...

To be continued.... and don't think I drive slow, it is just a question of break-in period and wrong hours (lots of traffic) that I've been drivin' it lately
