I think the words of Car and Driver are misleading, they say: "He stressed that few, if any, BMW customers around the globe are requesting more tactility in their steering" then said "one of the most frequent words voiced during customer surveys is “isolation.” The buyers find that a desirable trait". This last IMO is a misquote from CandD. I think the engineer meant that customers wanted more OVERALL refinement such as less wind and road noise and the likes, and NOT less steering feel.
Mmm, I don't think so. This jibes with what was said in earlier interviewed.
