I'm very fortunate that my dealer is most anxious to make me happy and keep me as a BMW owner (we've bought 4 from them in the last 5 years). They have a very slightly used 2016 M5 in the showroom that I think might make me very happy.
We should have a resolution within a week.

Guys - it's a 440 hp, 480 tq power train. Expecting it to be perfectly smooth at all times and in all throttle conditions is maybe a bit much. My suggestion, if it bothers you that much, is more liberal use of your right foot.
