That sounds absolutely horrifying. If I wanted light steering, or to feel like a passenger instead of a driver, I'd buy a Lexus. BMW initially made this same mistep with the E46, making the steering too light (the ultmate parking machine), before hostile cutomer feedback resulted in elimination of the "new steering."
They are using the optional variable steering bullshit...there is no question the basic steering will have more of an electrical assisted feel, but i doubt we lose much overall feel. I think the optional steering these reviews are using could be complete garbage. Every reviewer has the same car lol
