Just a comment on the 'throttle response'. When moving from 'Eff/D1' to 'Sport/D2' there is improvement, and that is where our M1 buttons are set. But to really sense a difference in throttle response which you seem to want to experience, would recommend at least trying 'Sport+/D3', even if only in the Engine setting (leaving suspension and steering in Comfort if you wish). Our M2 buttons are set for that to allow quick transition to a more responsive performance curve when that is needed (as it was today during busy Interstate driving).
I did play with the M setup a bit and did try Sport+ with the D3 mode at the first dealership with the Comp model. Yeah, it definitely makes a difference in how the car feels. It was almost insanely quick in Sport+ throttle with D3. Frankly almost unusably quick on public roads, but that's why you buy an M car, right?
