Why assume that people are always going for maximum acceleration, and get on your high horse, by instructing them what rpm they should change at? Are you for real? Which is more likely - the car owner doesn't know the redline of his engine, or you just (stupidly) assumed he drives as fast as he can all the time? Nobody does, so why make stupid assumptions and criticise based upon them?
You're as bad as those who assume engines are always cold and warn owners not to exceed [arbitrary] rpm
What's with all these sanctimonious gits who post on such videos telling people how to drive cars they most likely haven't driven themselves? You know what they say about assumptions right? One thing you people need to know about these cars (yes i own one), is that they have a clutch engagement restrictor valve. Basically, it makes it very difficult to execute smooth/rapid manual shifts, especially 1st to 2nd because the clutch slips no matter how fast you release the pedal. This can be removed.
what i meant to write is that you weren't redlining at all and that you SHOULD push it farther but not beyond redline. but it does appear - and i may be wrong - that you shift to 4th in what many of us neurotic bmw drivers would say is premature, and your tach falls below 2k for about a second. (most experienced manual drivers would go to neutral or downshift if slowing down for a cop) But you clearly have skills. And again, nothing personal...We're bmw owners so a bit different breed perhaps
And dude, just chill a bit. if you didn't want criticism on how you drive a manual bmw, perhaps the most steriotypical driver's car for neurotic type A personalities, then you shouldn't post your videos here. Again, nothing personal. You drive perhaps the best mass-production vehicle ever made in my opinoin, so that makes you alright with me.
@DCWestEnd The only problem I have with what you said is that it was completely nonsensical and has no basis in reality whatsoever. At no point was the car in the redline and at no point was the car under 2,000RPM despite my slamming on the brakes due to the presence of a police car and your ridiculous assertion that I should keep it above that.
This dude needs to learn how to shift. Nothing personal bro, but let the tach ease on up a bit...you'll get much more torque and won't hurt the engine at allon a bmw if you keep below redline. And never let a bmw manual drop below 2000 on the tach like it looks like you're doing here....you're burning tons of fuel at that point. love your car, and cheers...
@DCWestEnd If you actually watched the video, there was never a shift above redline and despite my slowing down due to the presence of a police car, in fact I never dropped below 2,000 RPM (despite the fact that your assertion that I need to always stay above that is bat-shit idiotic).
@EZEJFKEZE im 19 atm with the e46 "54" 325ti M'sport. atm insurence is real high in the uk for me i need to wait untill 21, then im buying the 330ci but the clubsport 1 in estrial blue :) then at 25 the M3 :)
@YoMomSaddam I got pulled over on an on ramp, going 80, he took my license and made me follow him to a safe spot, all the way across the bridge. Ticket got dismissed for improper procedure. =)
@YoMomSaddam The cop is looking for people speeding on the highway... not the on ramp.. because no one driving down the highway can see him from that spot... I got pulled over last week driving down the highway when the cop was sitting in this position
Yeah, the car is a hard-top. If it rattled that much I'd have gotten rid of the car. ;) I think it's just the camera mount or something making that noise.
The ones posting comments about shifting all drive automatics. fuck em
That was hilarious, 1st.. chirp. 2nd.. OOPS. LOL, I think everybody's been in a similar situation. Looks like you got away clean to speed another day :D
You need to learn how to watch videos and post comments. What's your problem with my shifting, exactly? The first was quick (probably quicker than any automatic transmission), the rest were somewhat erratic due to the presence of a police officer.
I have the same car and believe me man I'm enjoying it everyday. There times I wake up in the middle of the night and start my 330CI just to listen to the sound of the engine. LOL
Believe it or not all that is, is my tripod mounted with two legs on the floor, one on the seat, and tied in with the middle seatbelt. It ended up working really well. :)
I didnt see a cop in the video. you're a wuss.

granny shifting, not double clutching like you're supposed to.
what's the deal with the tach? first it doesn't go deep into the red, then it drops below 2,000 rpm? for over a second?
ask any racer, and real racer... this isn't how you drive a car.
