Keep up? Sure, it can probably be close, but given the same driver skill in both cars, the Sport Line with its sports suspension will no doubt handle better and shift faster if it's equipped with the faster shifting Sport Auto Transmission w/ Paddle Shifters (2TB) (assuming both cars have auto transmission). Manual is good. It feels similar to an E90. Throws feel about the same distance. Have you seen the MT video @ http://www.f30post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=642369? The 8AT on a sport line with Sport Auto option w/ paddle shifters (2TB) is very impressive though (and I've never been hot on autos). Will work on a full review soon.

The biggest disappointment of all this is seeing the lack/limited options in upholstery. Only 3 (one for the Modern Line) options to choose from? Not liking that.

There are two for the modern line, at least in the US.

we need to get an on-board video of a 335i driving, preferrably with the manual, with the windows shut so we can hear the engine sound from in the car.

...I LOVE Havana.... I hope they bring that to the F32... Maybe I'll do a MSport F32 Individual with the textured wood and Havanna... mmmmm
PLEASE bring Havana to the Coupe', the color was short lived on the E92 ~Frost

Those are horrible photographs. It silly to photograph a casr with a wide angle lens. The distortion sucks.
