2. New torque vectoring technology, it's not exactly a new breakthrough is it? The current M cars (E92 M3 included) already has "torque vectoring" by way of the M Differential. So he's talking more of improving what is already there vs. implementing something completely new and amazing.

Don't have time to look it up right now, but the E9x M3 vs M5/6 torque vectoring system are completely different. You have to find the press release for it. It's much much more complex than the one in our E9x M3.
