At this rate it'll be worthless in 3 years!
Having picked the car up Tuesday I'm an addict, it just seems to get better as we 'bond'. Last time I remember feeling this excited about a car was when I bought a new M3 back in 2002 and great a car as that was, this already feels like it's more purposeful, more engaging.
I'm curious to know how you tend to use the gearbox, my M3 (and subsequent cars) have all had SMG boxes which I've thoroughly enjoyed but this is the first dual clutch I've driven/owned. Much as I expected to drive the car manually via the paddles I'm realising already that the Sport setting in dynamic is very, very good and pretty much predicts and shifts as I would intuitively. Of course it's great to be able to temporarily override it for downshifts but for fast driving I'm finding that by playing with the throttle I can virtually make it do what I would manually do with the paddles.
So for those of you that have owned their cars for a little while, do you use the manual setting much or do you spend more time in Sport auto?
