first part (still at work...)

ok the first 3-4 text blocks is just trash about the differences and what nice cars blabla

Here we go:

The newest M3 Version with the additional signs SMG is the bonus at the sport image of the car. a six speed gear with auto-shift. to change the gear, you just need to hit the shift, up for the next higher gear or down for the next lower gear.

If you want it, you can get Schumacherlike two Speed-Shift Whips at the Steeringwheel. At the right side up and at the left side down.
Next Option is an Automatik Mode, which helps the driver in the City when you have Stop-And-Go drives.

Attention, this is nice!

To demonstrate the power BMW included a "Racing Start Funktion". ESP Off, GearShift UP, push the throttle to the bottom and take of the Hand from the GearShift. The rest what you see is smoke and fat black burnout tracks on the road

The SMG shift give positiv and negativ feelings. Positiv is that you can change the gear like a Pro. Also changing the gear into a lower mode works perfectly.

Thanks for the translation, but what about the C32? Can you do a bit more write up? Thanks.
