donv,

I was actually referring to your post in Post #5.

Is 15.7 seconds correct for the 1/4 mile time of a 545i with Steptronic tranny?

I now have fixed it. The times were for Steptronics equipped cars (I think both of them--see below). I apologize for the confusion.

Acutally, I am positive that that 545i yielding the 5.2 0-60 time and a 13.7 1/4 mile time was a Steptronic. I am pretty sure that the 545i with the 5.4 0-60 time and a 13.7 1/4 mile time also was a Steptronic. Regardless, a Steptronic posted the fastest times I have seen for a 545i.

Phew is right. I feel like I am in one those time movies where I keep going back to change the past and the future still keeps getting messed up no matter how many times I go back.

Manana (with a tilde). I am going to work on the B&B in the morning. It moved a little today--just a hair. I have some new and improved ideas. I'll post pics since I will put the car on ramps to do my fiddling this time.

You'll need to drive a DeLorean to do that!
