You are right about the 60 MPH ceiling on third gear. Damm irritating. Fix it in the tune and you will find yourself telling your BMW friends, "hey pal, you just got you butt kicked by a six."

Good to hear about the rev limited, i have been worried, my car goes to 85 in 3rd now and will let me go a little into the redline, but it dosent have a tune. And funny thing is I dont have any friends with BMW's, the reason I love them is I learned to drive in my moms 2004 BMW m3, and since have been to the bmw teen performance driving school, letting me drive the 335i, 135i, m3, x6 5.0, and 650i. It was the most amazing experience, and ever since then i've loved bmws. Not bad talking the crossfire, I love my crossfire. Most people I know have Mercedes, so i fit in with my crossfire. I have a friend who has a slk320, after riding in my car he said its unreal how similar they are
