Nice!! I hope they don't wait 2 years to bring it to our shores, like VW did with the "new" Golf/GTI models.

We will never get either of those Focuses, I'm told. Euro only. The closest we'll get to the Euro Focus is the Mazda3 and Volvo S40/V50.

Once again..the North American market get shafted..its something we need to get used to. The LC (Launch Control) on the E60 M5 is another example. Owners are pissed!!! I know I would be too!!!!

Yeah but we get the 6-spd manual here in North America in the E60 M5. Europe doesn't, just the SMG transmission. We get both.

Believe it or not, I would actually opt for the 7spd SMG. Those things are getting better day by day. Perfect double clutching / rev matching on downshifts.

Oh so would I. I fell in love with SMG-I in an '04 330i-M that I thrashed around at Downsview courtesy of BMW back in '04.

SMG M5 for the Monday to Friday deal, then an Exige for the weekend
