My friend's 2001 BMW 330i also has a straight-6 with 225 HP. It has an almost flat torque response across all RPMs and it winds up there beautifully as well - snaps your head at any RPM. Sounds fantastic as well - there must be something to those inline 6's that keeps German car makers making them...

The new M3 also has an inline 6 I believe...
