I'm sure for the real driving enthusiast, they'd rather have a true LSD vs KERS. I can hear the arguements between and F10 M5 and Porsche 911TT owner now - "Dude, I roasted you in those corners!" "Yeah, but my batteries we're charged more, so there" KERS is cool and all, but if it sacrifices driving an M5 at it's limits in exchange for a better hole shot, is that really a good tradeoff? I would just hope it could have KERS as well as an LSD.
Also, cheaping out is exactly what BMW did for a lot of cars by no longer including LSD's in cars...if little E30 318's or E32 740iL's have them, why in the world wouldn't my E38 740iL as well? DSC replaced ASC (my M5 doesn't even have ASC), so BMW let electronics replaced good ol' fashioned LSD's aka cheaped out. Even with KERS, no one likes a one-legger.
