It is awesome. As I've said before, it makes a 4000lb sedan feel like a go-kart. One of the best options BMW offers.

initially I didn't like it, took a little to get used to. But now I wouldn't be without it, love it.

I have it on my '07 550i and love it and would definitely get it again. Great for twisties and for manuvering through traffic. Once you get used to it you kind of take it for granted until you drive a car without it. The difference is day and night.

I definately love it, makes the nice roomy e60 feel like your taking turns in a tiny little 2 seat sports car. You will definately like it with the roads and traffic in Manila (though i am not sure the sport package would be the best idea over there!).
