You should put power to weight into consideration.
I think A3 is probably 200KG less than your car.
You should save bullet and get a E90 M3![Devil](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/devil.gif)

Just an update for the Koni FSD (for those of you planning to change or in the future
)
Ride:
Excellent for the HK roads, very close to the stock set up, absorbs all rough roads with ease, the cabin noise is close to the stock too
Handling and performance:
Pros
1)The car now can turn in at higher speed, and higher speed in the middle of corner,
2)you can actually feel the FSD works in the bigger bends.
Cons
1) With higher confident and speed in the bend, you might enter the corner at higher speed then the car can do
--> lots of understeering occurs which is not good if you want a quick track time (Maybe i need more time to get used to)
2) FSD works excellent in big corners, but not as much as in the twisky roads
3) If the height can be lower another 1/2 inch would be perfect (But it might ruins the ride quality at the same time)
Sum up:
Excellent balance of ride comfort and performance
Exceptional good value for the price you pay
If you want exterme sport, Koni FSD wasnt really for you (Although i havent tried bilstein myself so cant compare)

The new MB E-class sucks, but I double confirmed that bmwhk should be able to accept the first order for F10 on or around March/April
![](http://av100fun.com/images/smilies/yct35.gif)
Can anyone tell me how many cylinder is the 535i of F10?
