[QUOTE="ALBundy, post: 361708, member: 15"] Actually, it's safer to have DSC ON at all times. Now the newer BMWs' have DTC function as well, which gives the driver more freedom to have a greater wheel slip angle before the electronics start to intervene. With DTC switched on, I have no problems getting into a power steer situation at Turn 2, Turn 6 and 15 in Sepang. It is more dangerous withOUT DSC on, if you have driven extensively with and without DSC at Sepang. I have seen cars went out of the track in Turn 4 (understeer), Turn 5 (understeer), Turn 6 (oversteer) and even Turn 8 (oversteer) just to name a few. With DSC, you have a safety net, the electronics will actually reduce engine power before applying individual brake depending on the situation, and in some cases the electronics will even accelerate the car, a fact not known to many! As for ///M versus JDM, the beauty about a ///M is its versatility. If you set everything to normal/comfort mode, it will drive like a 330 on the road. You can go fine dining with your loved one or clubbing with your partner BUT once you press the M Button the car is transformed into something else altogether. Cheers [/QUOTE]
