Call me unenlightened, but if the "Auto Start Stop Function" is on the US-bound 2011, I'm canceling the order I placed earlier this week.
I currently own both E36 and E46 M3's, and don't need more opportunities for electronic fails on my car. If my car is going to shut down, I'm going to be doing it. I hope BMW USA is listening. |

Not sure if that is the only way Start/Stop kicks in on a DCT car, but it would make sense. |

Don't know if BMW's with an automatic gearbox already have the Auto Start Stop function. Maybe it's only for the 6MT ... |

I'm hoping this is just fear of the unknown and that once the details come out I will be put at rest, but having just placed an order for an ED E90 M3, I'm concerned with this auto start stop possibly being forced upon me. |

I thought that it was that the testing cycle didn't favor it. In other words the test cycle doesn't include a truly representative amount of stopped idling that I in Southern California might experience for example in freeway traffic.

I'm not sure we'll see it in the US just yet, but we most likely will someday.

Glass lenses are a non-US thing. Have to remember that this was the BMW AG announcement. BMW NA will very likely vary from this in detail.

front spoiler just looke like performance ones on regular 3ers M package....
I am sorry BMW designers, rear spoiler just doesn't look good at all............ CSL wheels dont look as nice as expected as well, would look much better if they are in black.. 10mm drop is nothing, but still noticable on my Edition Model. |
