Long overdue ordered mine in February received it in June this year.

So far i love it the main reason i went with another 335 was DCT and the N54 engine.

See below some pics from pickup and also from a trackday this summer (hood open to cool down nothing to worry about, yeah and i look relaxed because it was the warm up lap)

Cheers

Also everytime you shift in the 6spd you loose boost and boost returns after gear is in place. DCT doesnt loose boost at all, until we let off the gas

You only lose boost if you take your foot off the accelerator when you shift.

DCT is great but I love my manual. You already said what matters most....get what you like.

from the looks of his mod list, seems like handling performance is more important to him than looks, thus the 18" wheels

EnjoixE92 · 08-20-2011, 03:03 AM

PKizzle · 08-20-2011, 02:01 PM

6MT 335is...here too. Love the short shifter!

The manual is never going to be as quick shifting nor sound as badass during downshifts as the DCT, but I feel this could be the last chance to get a 6 speed in a high performance car. With the way every manufacturer is switching over to DCT the 6MT may not even be an option in 5 or 6 years time. Sad...but it's inevitable.
