Mainline 911s have pretty good compliance. Disappointing to hear on the new M4 brakes with various settings. My F80 M3 Comp had insanely good braking, but so do all modern 911s. Steering turn in was actually amazing in my F80 comp, but I test drove an M3 CS that had 30K miles and that one wasn't as good (maybe needed an alignment). You left out the back seat comparison...one is useable. Great to hear the new car lives up to expectations. Enjoy!
No Bowers & Wilkins in the M3/4. I have the M5 with it and it's fantastic.
