What are your impressions of the six speed manual on this car...I'm a huge fan of manual but I opted for the 550i M Sport with the sport paddles (since I already have an E39 M5 manual so its a nice balance).
I would love to spend a few days with a manual transmission version of this car to see how it behaves...
What kind of positive/negative experiences with it so far? Part of my curiosity is that it must feel quite a bit different since its a six speed manual vs eight speed auto...so I suspect each gear with the manual might have a little more pull and be longer.
Post pics of it when you get a chance...
PS - Get the ACS springs you will love them.
