Same, I had heard BMW removed the CDV on M cars since at least the F gen.
That being said, I've never felt that it was restricted under heavy driving. For example, on the track I can slam it from 2nd to 3rd as fast as I can and I don't notice the clutch momentarily slipping (there may be some slight hesitation, but I imagine that's more ECU programming).
I do remember when I first got the car, it did seem like the bite point moved around when I was trying to drive smoothly. I think for the most part I've gotten used to the way the clutch works so it's better now, but 1-2 shift is still the hardest.
