driving 550i and 335i the other day, i have to admit, it was refreshing to have all that smooth power down low. yes, i know, its not the visceral experience the m3 offers on top end, however it was nice nonetheless.

anybody else feeling this way?
This car has very little low end torque BONE STOCK. (especially with DCT in 2nd gear)

Get a supercharger, or mod the car with every NA bolt-on mod (+ tune) to boost the torque output of the engine.

It will come alive if you do either one of these two things. (promise)
