nice pics and a nice review. I find it refreshing to read a review by a BMW guy that is fair and neutral. most of the time they have they heads lodged up their collective ***. don't get me wrong, I like BMWs, but the E46 sorta blows...

Take a look at the interior shot... lets identify the switches...

I'm guessing the one I have marked as a question mark is the Intercooler spray switch.

Thoughts?

Well, from the EVO 7 dashboard, that button is for the ACD mode switch. See the picture bellow...

It's not ACD. I'm sure that reviewer would have said it had ACD instead of saying it didn't.

Well, considering how much of a mister we have about the center and front diffs and all the void that have created, I wouldn't be so sure that he just forgot about it. He (and all of the others) could have been told specifically not to say a thing about it. And, after him mentioning an AYC in particular and not saying anything about the ACD which is such a fancy feature on the EVO 7, just doesn't make much sense!
