Does anyone know what the shift throw might be like in this car? I assume they will be using the same tranny as the 335. If not, does BMW offer a factory upgrade? That was usually my first mod in my cars. You have to love short, crisp shifting.

From the look of all the interior pics of the car, it has the ZHP-esque short knob, which is pretty nice. The throw on the e90 isn't that long at all. You might find that you don't need to get the short shifter.

In either case, as you said, the e9x SSK will probably fit.
