Yeah...The steering is by far like nothing I have ever felt. It's precise and gives me a higher feeling of confidence entering turns

Zero to minimal understeer in the most intense of high speed turns--- couple this with a dialed suspension makes it quite incredible.

M5/M6 guys, I own both so dont get all worked up and say "how can you compare a sports car like that to the M" because Im not---im comparing the steering of this car to all of my previous rides.

Very much how perfect I find it as well. I'm going into turns and I think I am pushing it...then I stomp on the gas and just leads itself so perfectly.

I haven't had any real opportunities to really push it yet. I'm still getting acquainted with her. However a few times I tried to get her to come out a little in the ass, and she stuck...I even dumped the clutch a bit going around a turn in 2nd...and she hardly loosened up. Mind you I'm in NY and the outside temp was like 67

It's not easy to throw out the rear end it sticks, and the tires don't give hell you have full grip novel idea. Sounds like your having fun ....... it will be hard to put down the keys for the first 1500 miles. I just took the darn thing out to go to the store for milk(:

I hear ya...However I will say that I didn't drive the M in 5 or 6 days and I took it down to NYC for the ADV1 shoot (I will post when I get the pics) and it was like being in a whole different world. I appreciated it a lot more because I was taking it for granted. Coldlist called it...So I'm very lucky to be able to have this versatility at my disposal and enjoy the attributes that these two great cars possess.
