No, brutal would have been soulless like a Freckled Ginger. :lol::lol:

 

Showing your ignorance Dave, freckled gingers are amazingly wonderful, perplexing, vexxing and completely beyond the ken of normal guys......probably why you feel the way you do....

:cornut:

 

^ Soulless

Oops wrong thread. :rolleyes5:

 

Maybe if Dave's freckled ginger is just what he says, that could well account for a limp pedal

 

BMW calls that "refinement"....
I say if I wanted a car that FEELS like a lazy boy chair in a living room, I would have bought a caddy....give me feedback!!! Same for steering....

 

Ugh, refinement.

I used to think that's what I wanted in a car. Then I spent a bunch of money trying to make my car unrefined again. :lol:

And then I said screw it, and just bought the most unrefined R56 I could.

 

You're brutal. :lol:

 

:smilewinkgrin:

 

But the third pedal in the newest generation may as well not be there... zero feel/feedback from the clutch.

 

Keep this up and MA is going to boycotted by the freckled ginger society.

 

I do agree.

We need fresh gingers around here to keep the anti-sewing society growing.

 

Well this freckled ginger is planning on sticking around............

 

In response to number 6...

"These days only about four percent of new cars overall are sold with three pedals, so Mini shoppers are keeping the stick-shift flame alive."

You gotta be F'n kidding me! This screams car for the masses - big, squishy ride, plush seats, focus on "econo-formance" (aka mpg) kind of design. I'd love to see a comparison between models by manual/auto sold. I've driven an auto -- there's no comparison.

 

I'm not talking about the F56 JCW seats, I'm talking about the regular sport seats in the F56.

And I do agree with you there, Dave. The Recaros in my GP could be better. Still superbly comfortable, though.

 

Therein lies a tale. (?)

 

Sad but true. Just a limp pedal.

 

Hardly, they need all the friends they can find.:lol::lol::lol::lol:

 

You're complaining about the seats?

The sport seats in the F56 are bloody-****ing-tastic. Extendable leg supports, meaty bolsters, what's not to love?
