I drove the GT86 as it should be and at that time I would have bought it if I wasn't so dissapointed in the steering. It wasn't bad, just it wasn't the USP as I had hoped for, I imagine it was very good when compared to a "normal" car with electric assist... but not special for a sportscar.

The E8X did have a brake activated e-LSD on the 123d, 130i FL and the 135i. I.e. it was active even with DSC and DTC switched off. Worked fine in snow and greasy wet, but not progressive at all in the dry...
