Huh, the automatics in the 335i's are not dual clutch auto's like in the M3. Only the 335is has that option. 335i's use a 6 speed steptronic automatic.

Is the IS the "sport"? My father has the 335i, and damn its fun, just wish it was a proper 6 speed, though that 6 speed auto does like to keep it in the powerband.

Hmmm, that's kinda funny really because the juicebox wasn't compatible with the "is" until the jb4 came out in late December. Your kill was a couple months before then, right?

Looks to me like the kill was posted 11-01-10 (if you don't know that is November 1, 2010)

Regardless,you are missing the point. The race was before any jb products supported the 335is platform. From the beginning of November to the end of December is almost two months and that is if she was part of the beta pool. It went general availability sometime at the end of January or early February. Non the less, good kill

Doesn't mean it wasn't stock 4 months ago when the race took place.

I guess it is possible. I was suprised at how well a lightly bolt on Mach 1 with a passenger walked the car.
