They're still sorting out the EPS after how many years and updates? I don't understand when you have other companies like Porsche who seem to have come very close to what hydraulic steering was.
Yeah I've wondered this as well. I don't know if Porsche's R&D budget is THAT much bigger than BMWs but what they make simply just works. I don't know why BMW seem to find this so hard, DCT vs PDK is not even a contest.
Yeah, it's infuriating. They hype the new G20 on how it's supposed to have better driving dynamics, and it does to the F3X generation, but it still falls short of Porsche IMO. (I'm just referring to steering at this point.) I still don't get the feel and feedback I want. Aiming for something better than the prior gen is good but it falls short of what they should be going for.
