Got to drive a couple BMW's

[GLuXuRy]

Ok first off i loooooovvvveee my G. I got to drive a couple of BMWs at school this past month. Im currently training to become a BMW technician so thats why i got to drive them heres the list.
1. e66 N73B60 760Li
2. e64 N52B44 645CiC
3. e46 S54B32 M3 (SMG)
4. e60 N52TUB48 550i
First off im a driver that has never had a stick before, even my G is a AT. I do know how to drive stick (meaning geting the car to move and stop, non of this crazy types of shifting) But the SMG tranny is a "automatic drivers" dream. Its the feeling of a stick but with no pedal for the clutch, the freakin car does all the work for you . Driving and learning about these cars makes me want one even more everyday. Second OMG that 760Li is "P I M P" you rather sit in the back than in the front. I used to love the 645Ci but our G's have more room in the back than the 6 has. Anyone else ever driven these cars? I wana know your input

Curious why BMW tech and not INFINITI tech?

Gonna do BMW training then after that gonna get a job at a infiniti dealer for some expierence, but main reason is that i can make more money at BMW (as they say) so well see, im in the beginning of my carrer so i got time

"where one man's trash is other man's treasure" I really dont like it, just want to get break-in over with, so I can try out the "sport" mode with DSC off(S6), what mode did you use? I have drive it for last three days, I mainly use A4 and S3, in auto mode its just impossible to drive it smoothly, I think the harder you push it, the smoother it get atleast so far, hopefully it will change for the better as I drive it bit more, only have 600 miles on it.

ya the auto mode is known for shifting bad, the new generation smg's like the one in the 645 is even worst, people say when your in manual mode to let off the gas just a lil bit right before you shift and they say its supposed to make the car shift a lil less harsh
