Anybody feel as though....

The top of their RPM band in the X5M is a little bit unfriendly?

I'm not saying there is anything wrong with the car or even that it doesn't make tons of power in the upper band. I just mean the car doesn't seem to like to live there at all. Like it prefers to be in the lower RPM band in a higher gear.

Again, it may just be a break in thing or that I'm used to Porsche's that beg to be in the upper RPM band. But I feel like the car is not happiest approaching redline in terms of feel. Not speed.. Just feel. Like a tight pair of shoes.
