Now I appreciate muted Noise/vibration/harshness (NVH) damping after that experience.

Yeah fair take. There’s a hard balance for an M performance car to strike. I think that’s why they tuned the dampers the way they did for a busy ride to feel “sporty” when a lot of the other road feedback had been muted. Personally I think they should’ve made the ride as smooth as possible, and I’m glad they got rid a lot of road NVH, but they should’ve introduced a bit of engine NVH imo. Their solution was of course the fake noise via speakers (nice that can be turned on and off at will) but doesn’t have the right timbre of true mechanical noises—isn’t too pleasing
