With the Corvette it was different.  You floor it, and it immediately flipped two gears down, revs at 6,000, going from 120 km/h to 190 km/h in a blink of an eye. Maybe BMW should learn from the Americans. |
You see, there's the difference, your 1.6 engines are used for lawnmowers because when it comes to effieciency the Americans have absolutely no clue, a good fuel injected 1.6 engine over here would out acclerate and outpace and be a lot cheaper to run than one of your silly, environment destroying 6 litre pointless behemoths.
