Originally posted by Exodus_2pt0 View PostSore left knee? I haven't experienced that since I discovered Hydraulic clutches. Puck clutches help too, learn to drive it and it is no harder than a stock clutch. Plus you only have to pivot your foot to release it rather than a full throw.
Show me how to pivot my big ass feet in a work truck or an e30 and I'll gladly learn.

I have owned my 91 e30 325is semiauto for 11 years and on my second semiautomatic trans with 300.000 miles. First one went at 185.000 miles. I use redline synthetic trans fluid and it keeps coming back for more. I have another reman waiting to go in when that one goes.I also have a 90 325i track/dd 5 speed,i guess you can say i have the best of both worlds. SemiAutos dont suck !!!! I can run circles around alot of of you with my semiautomatic !!! There are people on here that know my car.Your signature picture has been removed since it contained the Photobucket "upgrade your account" image.
