But that begs the question, is "launch control" something any mature driver is going to be using on his/her commute? I think it's pretty "track/racing" oriented.

Consider this. When using the...

I'm guessing this is the 'international' release and doesn't all hold for the US? I can only assume this given talk of the 118d and 335d.

Would you happen to know, does this imply an F31 having DHP [Adaptive M Suspension specifically], which is xi only, is also a candidate?

thanx!

Wow! Can't believe how much bigger the F34 is than the F31! :o

I'd love to get a F31 335 but it seems I have to get a F34 if I want power too. Luckily the F34 is growing on me.

If you haven't read it on here yet tho, no tours for about a year, if that is factoring into wanting to do it.

Wait, the F31 only has about 0.5 cu.ft. more cargo/trunk capacity than the F30?

(speaking with seats up of course, and limiting my comparison to that as when I travel I need the rear seat space for my dogs)

Converting from international specs on the F31, from liters to...
