south, do you think that the production car will offer two M buttons?

Same reason you have two seat memory buttons even though those are also programmable and key dependent. That is, to store and be able to quickly call up two different sets of settings or "profiles" if you will. It's actually a great idea for an enhanced MDrive feature, and I hope it makes it to production. This way you can have, for example, one for spirited street driving, and one for a true track setup. Or maybe one is for wife-and-kids mode with everything set to the most comfortable level, and one is with everything turned up to eleven. Or whatever else you want.
