Interesting choice. How are you finding it after F8xCS? I thought M5CS is a lot more luxury feel.

I definitely miss the DCT from my M3CS. I had a stage 1 BM3 tune as well as the GTS gearbox tune and absolutely loved it.

So far I have been disappointed with the exhaust on the M5CS. It has been really, really quiet, but I was used to a lot of pops/overruns with the M3. The M5 exhaust has started to open up a little bit more now that I am over 2k miles, so I hope that trend continues.

As for a more luxurious feel... I dunno. It doesn't feel more luxurious. It is bigger, and that can be felt in the car. But this thing pulls like a freight train. Having AWD is really great too. No more wheel spin on the coldish Arizona winter mornings.

Hmmmm... mine was only in QC for 2 days. I hypothesize it's due to skipping Driver Assistance Plus and Carbon Buckets. Standard AW paint probably has something do with with it too.

I have neither of those options in my build.. BSM/Fiona, Executive, Park Asst, Laser lights, that's it.

What's really bugging me is the lack of communication about what's going on, for all of the G82s that have been stuck for a while.

Maybe park assist? I didn't check that box. That could be chip related.
