should have offered it on the Vt turbo. Might have been same story, but it might have garnered them some increased press for having a 335i / S4 fighter.
If driving an Alfa does not restore vitality to your soul, then just pass the hospital and park at the morgue to save everyone time.

Now drives a Jaaaaaaag...and thus will not pay for anything during an outing...but it is OK, because....I drive a Jaaaaaag.

This.

V6 turbo with manual would have been great!
