+1 but 60 years old gentleman will certainly have difficulties in getting that power to the ground from stand still.

Not that I believed he had all those 550hp...

Why?

He said he used to drive an M3 and that his new AC Schnitzer 335i has an LSD.

Modulating the throttle is the more difficult the more one has power. That type of a performance package would have to be very new. He could not possibly have much practice with the car. Age is a factor in feathering throttle. LSD just gets both wheels spinning

Well, I'm not sure he really had anything other than an ACS aero/wheel package and exhaust, since he mentioned something about his "special paddle shifters."

I was like, yeah, I've got the paddle shifters too.

I have 551 hp and can piss further too.

One more thing I thought about...if this guy really had that much HP/TQ (500+), then he would definitely need a beefed up tranny to handle that much stress. A stock 335i's ZF19 AT couldn't take so much HP/TQ as we've all concluded before. Maybe he just forgot to mention his new Auto tranny to support so much HP/TQ.
