The canc and NH lakes regions is a great area too, fortunately my wife's family has a lake house up there so I get to drive those roads fairly regularly too.

I feel like I always try to find stuff off of I 90, but there's just too much traffic if you don't go either north or south a significant amount. Post in the NW section the next time you're doing the loop! I may try to tag along! |

The Merino leather is pretty nice so far. I can't comment on how it will look in a few years worth of use but so far the seats are spectacular.

Can you tell me what the RPM's are in 6th gear at 80 mph? Thank you! (This drove me a little nuts in our F80 manual.)

I'll take a look next time I hit the freeway. It's definitely substantially lower than the F87C.

Yeah, sad. Porsche has both options 6 and 7. Corvette had a 7 gear option as well for at least 15 years (I had one, it was fantastic). Silly that BMW - especially with them being near the Autobahn, can you imagine driving well over 100 mph in 6th - can't option a 7 speed setup. I'd roll at 1800 rpm at 75 mph in the corvette, just sipping fuel.
