Rolf (the evil genius...) arranged a test drive for me in Miss Sophie, the promotec tuned 330D. What an amazing experience.
I have been "somewhat" convinced in theory about how strong the BMW 3.0D engines are by the many fanatic posts , but wow, to experience it in the flesh is something else!!! When you put the hammer down, most of your face and insides are left about 200m behind the rest you !!
For those don't know, Miss Sophie is 2006 3.0D with an upgraded exhaust, intercooler and promotec software (of course... !). She delivers 225Kw and 700 NM. The thing that really blows my mind about the 3.0D, is that it delivers all this whip-ass power in a rev range that redlines way under 5000rpm.
I need a 330D.... Better start the business case for the Boss Lady....
Thanks for the test drive Eric !!
