Replying to: garythepowers (May 11, 2008 6:07 am) For me I've always driven stick whether I was crusing on the flat desert plains or the hills of San Francisco. I personally like sticks esp' with the engine. I picked up the manual. Though sometimes I wonder if I would be more happier with an auto as I must be getting old... autos are very easy to drive and I can reach for my drink without worry...ha ha ha ha ha

We purchased a new 328xi about a year ago. My wife had always driven automatics so it took a little persuasion to get her to agree to a manual. We both love the car and enjoy the 6 speed. Its a fun car to drive and gets great gas mileage. It averages close to 30 mpg around town and on the highway. She has never regretted the transmission choice. It shifts as smooth as glass.
