My Ride: E60 M5 Black/Black/Silver trim. Idrive, navigation, Active Seats, HUD, SMG, that plastic Key... and every option except the Active Cruise Control. I asked for everything and dealer forgot Active Cruise.....

I had the same feeling about the M button. Just train yourself not to use it or setup M Drive to P400 when you press it and forget about it..... Thats what I did. Plus I took the car from Los Angeles to Seattle and back. That covered few thousand miles.

:-) Just wait patiently for 1,200... The powerband doesn't even come in until 5,500 RPMs. You will soon find the grin on your face that is holding the throttle 2nd gear at 5,500rpms and flooring it. hehe...
