0-60 535i Stick?

Anybody know the numbers for a 535i stick 0-60.

Drove the 535i auto and was impressed by the gusto of the 8 speed. But i am thinking about either a 35i or 50i standard shift and wanted to know if there is enought pep in the 300 horses and weight of the car.

I used to own a 530i and was happy with the performance... can I expect similiar performance?

Also, anyone know the EPA for mileage on the 35i? can we expect 18/25?

thanks for the input, loved the ride!

EPA and acceleration numbers for the 8-sp have been around for a while and they're quite good, especially the fuel consumption, which is (if I remember right) 21/29, and 23 over all. I would expect inferior ratings, both for acceleration and for fuel economy, from the MT version.

i think 550i has no manual option. You must go with the 8sp Auto.

Not true, you can configure it (manual) in the website. I'm kinda waiting for 550xi w/manual to see if this is best of all worlds.

o really... cuz i got a hardcopy of F10 catalogue (full 67 pages) with me and it states that manual is not an option for the 550i...

black square = standard
white square = option
dash = n/a

6MT is an option for the 550 in the US (and maybe Canada) and not in ROW. For the 528i, it's the opposite. Go figure.

Anyone find out yet how quick the 2011 535i can sprint to 60 mph?

550? I am betting 6.0 for 535 and about 5.0 for the 550i?
