I went on my complimentary BMW Driver Experience day yesterday.... They've upgraded the cars you spend the day in... M3, 428i, and M235i...
Did some of the hot laps and a Motorkhana in the M235i. Was very impressed. PS: For anyone planning to do one of these, the instructors told me that the will have the new M3/M4 in August. |

No 220i there yesterday and I did at least 10 laps, full pelt(ish) in an M3 - as well as the 428i and the M235i... |

ok thanks. i have never taken N54 or N55 in DCT mode round a racetrack and thought the 2 drive day would be good time to do it with BMW Oz cars.... to see how a DCT N55 feels like before they decide on what they put in a M2. Pointless paying and going on track with a 220 and 428 imo. Thanks again.

There are no N55 DCTs any more. The M235i has the 8sp Auto. And I don't think there were ever any N54s with DCT... |

I have never taken any 1series in DCT on track. so was hoping to give it a go but you're right of course m235i has that auto in it.

Haven't looked at one yet but they are dropping steadily in price, should be affordable for most soon. |

As for the voucher you get with M cars, a group of us from here upgraded to the M dynamic day, so we spent the entire day in the M3. You should have asked for that. Big thanks to Sparoz for arranging it. |

It's all good. I'll do that one at some point in the near future but I'll go to Phillip Island. |
