While I like the older racks for feel, in todays BMWs I much prefer the power steering and it's quickness to rotate the car with all the weight.

Given the weight and power infused in todays cars, you are going to have to make some trade offs to be the jack of all trades.

One of the problems with the M2c steering IMHO is the 3 settings. Before I ordered mine last year, I was absorbing as many reviews as I could, and a recurring theme was people leaving the steering in comfort mode 100% of the time, because the other 2 modes just felt even more artificial than comfort. Didn't take me long to fully agree with that sentiment. Sucks that there's no way to default steering to comfort mode and leave it there.

Also, I don't think my review is negative... I think its just realistic... I think I was underwhelmed by this being an M car personally.

The M2c was kind of a pleasure coming from my previous cars. The M2cs is an absolute hoot and is perfect in my opinion. Perhaps it's just the natural progression of the aging car guy?

This is why I think the C has the steering feel it has and why the CS is so different. I think CS steering would annoy a lot of people. It tramlines every now and then and the feel on centre is never relaxing like the C. So I think they did it this way on the C (and also the G series cars) as more people prefer it this way. I much prefer the CS steering but I'm not everyone. Aside all that I had no problem with the steering in the C overall, it's quick, direct and you get a good feel with what the car is doing through your secondary cheeks.

I haven't been able to feel the same in the F80 and now my F87. Even though they are both great cars and so much better in other ways, the same steering feeling is just not there. I don't obsess about it and enjoy my M2 comp and its character, but I can relate to your comment. |
