The fishtailing is what I miss the most though. I'm sorry, I thought i bought an M car with some soul! Give me all the fishtails and spinning tires.

In all seriousness, even moderate throttle and TC turned off would get her loose from a complete stop. That, paired with the suspect DCT response in low gears (you have to floor the throttle, they said) and it was a helluva car even under 30 MPH and the low end.

All my passengers hated it. But to me it was just a reminder it's a true M car.
Agreed, but people complained constantly about how difficult it was to launch, too much power to the rear wheels, too much tire spin in low gears, etc.

So BMW fixed that issue lol and now owners want it back

Also, there were many idiot owners that would gun it with TC off from a dead stop and crash.
