Yeah I have set mine but yet to hit the botton! I kept DSC on for now but over the summer, will test it out with it off. Still haven't hit the power button so who knows what will happen then. Can't wait to try though. I played around with the EDC today, man can you really feel the road when pushed twice. Holy shit was it rough! Could never drive that way daily but felt like I was hugging the road big time. Fun day in the car today! Smoked a prius (reminds me of the threads in the general forum)

Mine sounds a little rough too. Almost sounds like there is a hole in the muffler or something. Warms up quickly though

Haha. Had a G8 drive next to me today, he dropped it into neutral and reved the engine. Looked over and laughed. Schaumburg and palatine are so different then where I live. I like it out there. No excitement where I live. People just stare all the time

All the Power button does is increase the throttle sensitivity. It's most noticeable during the initial press of the pedal, but you'll notice the engine responding more quickly to the throttle input whenever. Having driven it a lot with it on, I prefer it over it being off. I might keep it off if I'm stuck in bumper to bumper traffic.

Interesting. Def still learning how to drive it. RWD is so much different IMO. Still getting used to that back end slidding around. Never had that with the 335xi. Lots of power under the hood

I really can't remember a time when I enjoyed driving this much. That sound of the engine/exhaust never gets old. Instant boner everytime
