I think its very easy to misjudge just how fast D4's (4.2) are, the refinement makes it feel quite mediocre, but while driving completely normally not particulaly trying to fly away from the lights and not even in sport, a quick glance in the rearview reveals that the rest of the flock are miles behind.

there is a lag, much less if its in sport mode, know what you mean by the fly by wire feel but to be honest its enough for me.

im still very happy with mine, its just a great place to be and everything just works so superbly
