In the X3M it's a performance setup... in the M40i, its a safety / traction setup.

Also - many people are looking to slide / drift their suv... have you driven an X3M? It bends physics...

I didn’t say it was the same exact diff, in fact I said they are different parts but shared the same active electromechanical approach i.e. both use an electric motor and controller linked to the DSC to alter a clutch pack.

Yes, I’ve driven an X3 M Comp, and owned plenty of very fast sports cars, but the F97 or M40 isn’t a very fast sports car, it’s a capable family SUV.

As for drifting, buy a car designed for that if it’s your thing. I can’t say my what do a I want from an SUV list has ever had drifting on it, but something that improves traction performance and offers better handling would be.
