Yes, the S65 has fantastic throttle response and has way more sole in more mundane driving conditions, feels more special more of the time. There's no denying the S55's pulling power on track though, and in Sport+, it is responsive enough to allow positioning the chassis exactly where you want it. For me, I loved the S55 the first time I had in on track. The S63 in the F90 is also awesome, pulls like there is no tomorrow. I have little doubt the S58 will also be a great engine. It's the 8AT I don't like.
