DanielJames Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 I've done this on my previous cars, the Saxo VTS was the most fun! but in the E46 it's pretty pointless Laggy throttle, dull engine, no exhaust I need another Saxo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty540 Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 I find its very easy to do in BMW's and i've done it in my previous BM's and I do it in my current 328Ci too. Matching the revs on down changes makes for much smoother progress even just driving about town, but when you're pushing on its far better!

johnny330i Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 (edited) I find my feet too big to do this with the bmw's floor mounted pedal. Much easier with cable throttle too Edited January 5, 2012 by Johnny320d Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keith Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 It's easy in most BMWs, slightly different in the E46: the cable throttle in the E36 M3 and Z3 M Coupe made it incredibly intuitive to match perfectly, but it's just a matter of getting used to the fly-by-wire. Same with the missus' Cooper S. I find the pedals in all BMWs are close enough to blip whilst braking with the same foot no problem, although I do have big feet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
