Thanks for the link. But I'm really wondering about these guys.

I hope their "understated" posture in this review means
good things are in store with JCW kits.
Since my MCS is auto, I can get the higher shift points w/o sport engaged (manual shift mode) but I engage it anyway as I prefer the more weighted steering feel.

NOT SURE I WANT TO KNOW THE ANSWER TO THAT ONE..........
Never could follow those English mag reviews. Do those guys really speak English??

I just don't trust any reviewer who doesn't care for the sport button. He's not one of us. BTW I'll have my own review of the JCW Kit on motoringfile tomorrow.
