That's what I gather from these threads.
I think you are right. Wish I knew this prior to buying it. Terrible to own a high powered sporty car and be scared to mash the throttle to redline a couple gears. I am hardily even putting the pedal down 3/4 of the way. What a disaster. No idea what I’d replace it with. It’s a shame bc it’s a great middle of the road car. Maybe a G
Well... my time of ownership of my M4 is limited - 14 months. But I am not tuned and while I haven't done any hard pulls, track runs, or street racing - I've had zero issues and I don't have a tune. It's stock performance wise. I considered bootmod or another tune like Dinan, but after reading all these threads it's a hard pass from me to tune. I'd rather keep it reliable.
