I enjoyed the review, and the exhaust note surprisingly! Thank you!

I think he refers to the power delivery although he could have clarified that. S58 is fairly linear with not much down low but a lot up high. Contrast that with S55 which was arguably too much down low and slight taper off up high. Otherwise there is virtually nothing comparable with E46 M3.

I wouldn't say it's perfectly linear power but more like if the S65 had more power with VTEC (yo!) that kicks in at 3k RPMs and carries to redline.
The S65 did have a version of VTEC, it's called double-VANOS
