The problem is, it makes the steering feel terrible on my other cars.

+1 So true... It would usually take me a good 5-10 mins to get use to the steering on my other car and the wife's car. I refuse to buy another BMW without this option. It's a must!

I test drove a 525i with Active Steering and it is irritating! It feels like it doesn't give me full control of the wheel

. AS just keeps on kicking in! I will definitely not get this option!!!

Do you guys honestly love this Active Steering?

Took me one turn.....the first turn out of the parking lot. Don't really notice any difference with going from the family SUV to this car, except that the steering is very responsive.
