Seems to me what people (who haven't driven the car) are taking exception with is

1.) Sound
2.) "Rush to the finish" at redline
3.) Throttle response

What CH seems to be saying is

1.) Maybe a little, but it grows on you given it's other superb qualities
2.) Maybe you give a LITTLE here, but not much - it's worth winding out it just doesn't have the e9x's 7000+ win ... BUT that comes with loads of pre-7000 win the e9x doesn't have
3.) None that he could tell

For people complaining about the DD aspect of his review- uh, that's what this car is: a DD that can be track ready. IF you don't want a DD then why the HELL are you buying an M3/4?? (or a 911 or a cayman?)
