I felt the same way initially when I swapped my hydraulic steering 1-series for the electric steering 2-series.
But within a month I began to love the preciseness of the electric steering of the 2er - and if I wanted a slightly heavier feel, I'd put her in Sport mode.
Recently, I had the opportunity to drive my 1-series again (my son bought my old 128i ragtop) and I was surprised how much I didn't like the hydraulic steering of the 1er. It felt heavy and sluggish.
So, don't fret about how you feel about the 2er's steering. You'll quickly come to appreciate it.
