And per the M5CS, we have access to one and we will be doing a review shortly to determine their relationship. We’re thinking this is more track focused of course, but more curious about the steering comparison. As far as the shifts go, we didn’t mention but it has the adjustable shifting with the Drivelogic system but we didn’t care much to play with that since the other drive modes automatically set that. Also we were constantly short shifting under load because it’s in break in. That was the issue. No transmission loves that. Shifting under lower load or at higher rpm’s like you would want to is entirely different. Much faster and smoother. Also in comfort modes the auto shifting was smooth and ideal.

Thanks for sharing your initial impressions and putting in the effort to create a video. Many have been longing for some drive footage.


Given that you have gone down the path of digging into objective information (sharing the data on your full weight measurement was a nice touch), I think you should edit your video and tag information to include that the car is a MY24.


Cheers and enjoy the car.
