But yeah, how are you supposed to appreciate the differentiation in driving dynamic at that level?

But I bet you didn't power around any corners. That would have shown you one difference right away.
I didn't get a chance to power around corners, you're correct. It was mainly me, and I don't think the dealer would have minded. I get that way when I'm test driving a new car.

I honestly think BMW has something built in to limit a car slightly during break in. I have no proof of this, and I know most won't agree, but I swear it seems like my M235i ran better after 1200 miles. Even in comfort mode it felt stronger.

I usually don't really push a car until after I've bought it and it's mine. I'm positive I would love the M2 after owning it and driving it on my own.
