So while I fully agree that the GC should not be called a focused sports car, I disagree that the steering is loose, at least not on the one I drove. Not perfect mind you (something about this 5-series based chassis), but way better than the 550xi/535xi.

and yes "BMW's used to be way more sporty". Kind of sad.
I see you have a X6, honestly the X6 felt tighter better steering than the non M, 6 series i owned for 18 months. Had a X6 in 2012....I think the M6 has way better steering than non M, still not like the older bimmers though and definitely not like Porsche's at all...Not close imo. Maybe the new M3/M4 will be back to the basics
