Me too...on advantage of the xi I hear since the AWD gear doesn't allow BMW room/way to route the electric steering the way they want as on the non Xi cars which have the new electronic assisted steering. Car drives better and is more sporty from a steering feel standpoint I feel vs my 550i cause of this part. Helps alleviate some of the difference in length and width in the 650 as well as how much lower you sit. My 2 cents.
