Sounds like the take away is that the N52 is a sweeter engine than the M54. That's great. Prices for 3.0i for either engines seem similar based on mileage.
Do you know if suspension has been reworked pre/lci? 3.0i vs 3.0si? |
"si" means it has a sport suspension.
Well, actually, the E85/86 is based off the E46, the front and rear suspensions are practically the same, except for tuning. And the E86 is about one of the stiffest chassis you can buy without needing a home mortgage sized loan. The E85 roadster is damned stiff in it own right. Great cars. Get one.

A manual transmission can be set to "comfort", "sport", and "track" modes simply by the technique and speed at which you shift it; it doesn't need "modes", modes are for manumatics that try to behave like a real 3-pedal manual transmission. If you can money-shift it, it's a manual transmission. "Yeah, but NO ONE puts an automatic trans shift knob on a manual transmission."
