my 2nd reply
umm there have been some issues ive been reading about on other forums of such encounters such as u had
TCR
there was this one guy from M5forums driving a 545i i believe stick and he was on the track and the steering changed ratios from low steering speed @ high driving speed to high steering speed @ low driving speed
honestly i believe its a dangerous thing to have when doing spirited driving
it sux to see bmw go down this electronix b/s path arent they supposed 2 be traditional ??
i donno bout u guys but im gonna go look on the E39 for now the new look is kinda growing on me but still i prefer the muscular lines of our old faithfull E39
and as for chris bangle screwing the interior and xteriors up to an extent

its all good man TCR im glad your safe and nothing happend
take care
