It drives a little tank'ish (I can feel the weight of the body in every stop and turn) and I have to be very gentle on the gas pedal. Combined with All Wheel Drive Lag, the power hits too hard most times at slow take offs. I supposed I only use the first 10% of the pedal range driving around unless I wanna pass an annoying driver.......and then Whooosh! Crushing power.

-The gas mileage is very bad, but only worth it if you are having too much fun....the upside is that when I tow, the car doesn't even flinch. LoL

-The engine is smoldering hot all the time (I know BMW runs hot and I have 2 turbos) but I don't like this for engine longevity. The coolant keeps running even after you shut it off to cool things down and I've already had to replace a turbo coolant pipe (that BMW didn't cover) even though I had extended maintenance and service.

-I already need suspension repairs up front (not covered by warranty)....I suspect this is due to the weight of the front end.

Any other issues are not a big deal. I"m still not gonna buy anything other than BMW (until I can afford a Tesla Model X), I just don't want this beautiful but massive V8 anymore. The 4.8is I used to have was just beautiful to drive. I didn't mind that N62 motor at all. This N63 is not the smooth engine I enjoy for normal driving. I have a sportbike for the wild side. I just need power when I get to the 90% pedal position.
