M135i Diff
Still running in, but now getting to the point I'm venturing a little higher up the rev band.
Coming off a motorway entered a nice long, wide, dry, curving slip road, so clicked into sport and gave it some gas. Was not prepared for the 'scalded cat' take-off combined with tightening radius, but committed as I was I had to stay on the gas and I can tell you guys you could really feel that diff working. Not as progressive or 'transparent' as an M Diff, but pretty damned good non-the-less. You can feel it transferring torque to keep everything going forwards and at no time did I feel anything less than comfortable, despite the levels of energy going into and through those back wheels. The car makes you feel like an expert, although it was probably 25% driver, 75% BMW! There are not many cars with this kind of midrange power. The M5 and M6 must be animals
