Wow thanks for posting this up, I hadn't seen it before.  That was a pretty good read, cool to see that they liked the car and thought it would do well.  I especially like the part at the very end: "throttle lift oversteer is well controlled."


Thanks to Brad at http://img443.imageshack.us/img443/7567/ticevalleysiggv7.jpg">Shutterflick.com for editing the sig.

ah..late on this one i guess ;) oh well, I scanned it in from the original.  Figure i will leave it up for those who didn't catch it the first time around.

Anyone else have articles of a similar nature?  Or possibly advertisements for the 318is?

(EDIT: I just found this post: http://www.m42club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=680 - nice)
