I have never quite understood the distinction--LSD's versus what the M cars have--which I have seen characterized as BMW's version of LSD. Do you understand the difference? And, for that reason Rudy, I have never understood realtyman's objection to BMW's M-car differential.

From what i've read it's pretty much the same thing. I don't get it why realityman has an objection to bmws m differential (lsd).

Hey Znod,
///M Cars have a limited slip diff.
Non ///M cars have a lot of electronic goodies that are supposed to "mimic" (if I may dare say so) LSD, however I can't seem to drive my 5 in the same way as I did my M3.
I think I spent more time looking out the side windows than the windshield in my M3 (which had an LSD - and I'm not talking about those "Mickey Mouse" stickers, either).
