It's not going to feel the same as normally aspirated car. That doesn't make it bad but he has a duty to point out the differences.

Chris Harris also publicly said he preferred the W204 C63 to the E9X M3 and he's a diehard BMW fan.

I too am about as big of a BMW fan as one can be (F80 on order) but I just laugh when I see all of these "myths" perpetuated about the C63. It's an outstanding all-around performer, which is why I won't be getting rid of it for a long, long time.
To add to the burn, Harris even owned and made a couple of videos of his Alpine White E92 M3 back in the day when it first came out.

I think that's when he was with Driver's Republic or Autocar, well before /Drive was even a thing.
