Btw, I find the rigidity of the f30 - even in 328xi trim - to be one of the absolute unsung heroic parts of the most recent 3-series. That chassis is significantly stiffer than my e39 m5, for example, to the point where I really had a hard time detecting any body flex. "Bank vault" comes to mind.

It also feels a lot better than my e60's chassis, a lot more responsive.

IDK, just really excited to see what M did with the chassis of the f30. Before recent years and more and more M3 owners becoming power-chasers and quarter mile lovers, M's magic was always in chassis, suspension, steering, braking, and cooling as well as fun-to-drive engines. I think that's where their expertise still is....
