I remember close to redline you'd have that "oh shit" moment.
I'm hoping the 585 kit brings my M3 into this realm. I will post a review when I have it installed.

The S85 is a raw engine. Also the SMG III is kick ass transmission in S7 mode. Not as smooth as DCT, but way more exciting and responsive. I have to say if i could i would get my M6 with 6MT as the SMG is jerky as hell in city however the kick it has on upshift is awesome.

The Audi is R-Tronic... shifts much smoother than the E60 M5's SMG III with trans software... But also doesn't feel like the shifts are as fast.
I must say that the 6 speed in the 997 TT is pretty epic. I want it in my M3!

Oh cool. A nice DD with a beast of engine under the hood.
