I have found the steering fine for emergency maneuvers. I think the only complaint that I have about the steering is the lack of feedback. I would much rather have the R&P steering found in the 528. But I wouldn't say the steering in the 540 is slow.

: A while back I asked about steering responsiveness on 540i/6. Someone e-mailed me and said it wan't too bad but that in an emergency maneuver he almost lost it - like the steering was too slow. Anybody else found this to be true?

: Also, anybody know of a comprehensive road test on a late model 540i 6spd? I can find 528i man/auto and 540iA but no 6 spd.
