Hi,

The Non-Egas cars (<'00) are not quick cars at all. The Beemer will have much better acceleration. BTW, the Gear ratios for the CWA, or DVY 5-speed Transmission on the '99 are:

1st Gear - 3.50
2nd Gear - 2.12
3rd Gear - 1.43
4th Gear - 1.03
5th Gear - 0.79
Final Drive - 3.89

Hope this helps...

Happy Motoring!... Jim
