These cars are great, out of the box. But until you try one with an LSD, or a newer M car to feel the experience, you'll never see how unstable/unsettled the open diff cars really are, in comparison. With DSC off, your car still uses the cross ABS traction feature which mitigates (albeit, poorly) what 20% of an LSD can do. Unfortunately, it always responds to late, and typically upsets the balance of the car. It actually will cause the car to jerk mid slide/oversteer, and to me that's not safe at all. I had to turn that ABS/lsd feature off because it was interfering with the engagement of the LSD on uneven surfaces.
Agreed.

I'd also say driving in full nanny Sport more is more enjoyable now since the LSD limits spin so quickly that the nannies have no time/very limited time to intervene. This means far less instances of neutered power when trying to go heavy throttle.
