Decided that was stupid, changed my mind and accepted the M40i. Will pick up Thursday, in 2 days. Wife now talking to me.

Still sounds like a serious problem. Hard to understand if driveline or engine mount issues cause this, then why does it only vibrate in the steering wheel? Any vibration through the floorboards, throttle, anywhere else? Do any of these involve the M Sport torque vectoring differential? Sounds like cornering is not a factor, problem occurs in straight line?
