Sarah gives us another point of view from across the big pond.

I watched the video and the first thing I noticed was, what huge mirrors she has!

LOL. We learned when we were in the plant that all the export versions have those mirrors with the white light bar in them.

She also has two well placed headlight cleaners.

Those indicators repeaters on the mirrors and the headlights cleaners for Xenon lights are necessary for all the cars in Europe since 2 years.

I like the mirrors. It would be nice if we had the option of checking a box to get those.

Another knock on the M7 shifter quality. Hoping the Z has an improved mechanism...

Chip:
Thanks for the video.
Very well done and she is right about the shifting problems in the higher gears. I have inadvertantly gone down two gears a few times and it is scary. I think I am about to blow up the motor when this happens. I know and realize that I do not drive fast enough to do that when gearing down but it is scary at first. I have always thought that the shifiting was a lot like the old Munsey trannies from the 60s and 70s. Square cut gears I think sometimes. The old crash box tyle. Yikes....... Having said this, I do love my car and perhaps I will get used to the shifting. I have also experienced a high pitch squeel while down shifting and it sounds and feels like the clutch or throw-out bearing. If that is possible. I will listen for a while longer and see if I can pin point it a little better and have it checked out by the dealership. Anyone else noticed this?

I know this is the wrong thread for this shifting and clutch discussion but since she mentioned it in the video I thought I would expand on it.
