+575 Sounds good when he gave it a little kick in the guts too. Surprised only 2 manual M's in Aus. Is yours a pre-M car? As I recall, there were a lot of changes.
Yes mate, it's pre M. The M had some interior design updates, and they removed the vents from the top of the bonnet behind the headlights, as well as changing the grill assy. Nothing was changed as far as engine / drivetrain was concerned, but they added traction control. They also removed the movable rear spoiler below the bumper bar and made it a fixed unit.
