I know when the 4 and 4S made their debut in Monaco they had Walter R driving all of the journalists up and down the hills in the same car.

Yes I saw those, the car sounds awsome, esp the new electronically controlled hydraulic clutch mechanism in the awd and the 'sport chrono plus' option that bumps the boost up to 17.4psi when activated.
Think I'll get me one.

How about a link?
Thanks.

I agree with RR, all the British books are great, compared to the US rags. I ordered Car as it's the one I always pick up when I am in the UK. It ain't cheap, either, at around $100 USD. Go here: http://www.carmagazine.co.uk/
