There is a simple explanation for your experience. There are rumors circulating the internet that while the F30 may look like a BMW, it does not in fact drive like a BMW.

In defense of the F30, I've been told certain models feature an extended display with digital gauges. Or something similar.

No fear, the new M will feature the same steering as found in the E90.
