2012 128i M sport package--short shifter?
just ordered a 128i coupe with the M sport pack. dealer says it includes a ssk--but this is not mentioned in any of bmw's literature. can anyone verify if this is the case? is the shifter on the M sport pack different than the 128 stock shifter? any help would be much appreciated.

well having a 128i with the m-sport I can say that the shifter at first did feel short. The shifter is about 70mm from what I now but know it feels like shifter would.
However I did have the ability to drive one with out the m-sport and I can tell you I felt no difference. Others though may have different experience.

well you have the M-sport knob, but the shifter itself is the same. you can buy the performance shift kit as stated above. i think dan from unitedbmwonline probably sells it cheaper then your dealer.

SSK is dealer installed option. When your car arrives, it will be put on the car on the port of entry. SSK shrinks down the throw considerably, however, I love the M-knob that comes with Msport package over the SSK knob. You can ask them leave the original M knob in place and just have the SSK put on.
I personally didn't need the SSK.
