TBH @weederr33 I tell myself I won't get 'offended' about it, but it happens anyway.

No matter what reasonable argument you give, they have some other negative reason to hate on our car and ignore any rational response you give.

Paraphrasing, but someone said something along the lines of "I've test driven the car and revving it out sounds bad and does not feel good at all" when I said that's how this engine and car are meant to be driven to have fun and stay out of the stupid torque dip.

I guess they're too busy being obsessed over BMW M2 or similar (nice cars in their own right) that have way more luxury feel, less road noise, and softer suspension but more obvious power and earlier consistent torque.
