330 Questions.....06 model

So I just picked up a pristine 330XI -- a couple of questions for the informed out there...

I have the sport package...on the XI...is it only a seat upgrade?

I read somewhere that the limiter on the sport package was reset from 130 mph to 150 mph.


Do these 2006 models have the 6-speed automatic?

1. No it has supposedly the same suspension height as the regular i Sport package.

2. on the Xi I dont know it really depends on what tires you have, it probably is lower the 150 limit is on cars with high performance tires with that speed rating. I dont think they have summer tires on the xi. Either way are you going to be hitting 150 alot in the xi (probably not possible due to hp wind resistance and the xi drivetrain power loss).

3. Yes the 2006 models have 6 speed autos.
