I was waiting around today at the dealership while I waited for their courtesy shuttle back to work and I decided to check out the new 3. The interior is really slick, though I'm not sure that I like how you can't upgrade to a new head unit. I liked how the shifter looks and feels under my big hand. Has anyone thought about or tried replaced the shifter in a P5 with that from the 3? Is the thread pattern the same? I think the 3's shifter is also a little shorter...

 

Sorry... to clear up what I mean... I'm thinking of replacing just the shift ****, not necessarily the the whole assembly. Thanks!

 

yes it will fit....a friend of mine has it...looks very nice.

they have some serious issues with the layout of their website.

 

Haha, yeah I know, if you click on a component, it looks like nothing comes up, till you realize it's waaaay over to the right!
