I have an M Sport 650xi coupe, and I highly recommend the M Sport package. I've driven the non-M Sport models, and in Sport mode it drives similar to the M models, but the exhaust note on the M Sport makes for a much better overall experience.

As for steering feedback, I recently learned that xDrive uses hydraulic steering while the RWD version uses electric steering. I have to say that I'm impressed with the steering feedback in my 650xi. It may not be a 911, but it is one more area that BMW defied expectations and physical limitations in such a car.
