: drove the CL Type S today - couple observations: : Not enough headroom for me (6'3"), less than my Integra sedan in fact. : Nice interior, nicer than E36, maybe not as nice as E46. Comfortable, supportive seats, leather not as nice as E46. : Nice exhaust note, handles solidly, but feels big - hard to place the front corners. : Doesn't feel any quicker than an E36 328i (5spd), maybe slower. Haven't driven a new 328i. : Auto-manual is not very intuitive, poor substitute for a manual. Not sure who'd buy this car, though the price is good.
