The sport mode was a bit better but still. Not sure how much the all wheel drive has to do with it but definitely disappointed.
Welcome to the club..

Personally I just cannot force myself into buying any BMW after 2013. Precisely because of the way steering feels and total lack of feedback. But also because all of them are getting stupidly bigger with every generation.. And certainly the grill... ugh (but that's subjective of course).

PS: No, AWD has nothing to do with steering feel. RWD cars feel totally disconnected from the road too. My 4Runner has much better steering feel and steering feedback than modern BMWs...
