What about E3 spark plugs, has anyone tried them?

Haven't looked on this one, but every other car I've owned listed the plug gap on an emission sticker either on the bottom side of the hood or the firewall.
Here's to clear up the 'pre-gapped' debate - http://www.ngksparkplugs.com/tech_support/spark_plugs/faqs/faqpregap.asp?mode=nml
Back to Mz5, anyone here replaced the OEM plugs with NGK plugs? Did you have to make any gapping adjustments out of the box, if so how far off were they?A: Maybe.
Umm, so if I check it, per #2, and find a gap, I should not adjust it, per #3, and just stick it in? Purpose of #2? oOI finally got a chance to look in the 2006 Factory Workshop Manual, and I wanted to clear up any mis-information given earlier by myself or others regarding the anti-sieze or gapping.
1. It does not mention using anti-sieze with the factory recommened plugs.
2. It says to check the gap with a WIRE style gap checker only.
3. It says not to adjust the gap, simply replace plug.
