Mine is MT behaves the same way as everyone is sharing although cold weather plays a part. I had a 2008 m3 and the tires were not as good in the cold. Felt like riding on steel rims. But the mdm mode was far mor conservative and I had that mode on all the time because it made you feel like a driving god with training wheels (in that you didn't kill yourself). The m5 because if the power hike needs more throttle respect than the m3.
