The straight six is lovely to wind out, and is very smooth.
The shifter and clutch were OK - clutch is probably as vague as the BRZ clutch was, but the shifter is definitely better in the 86/BRZ in terms of feel (I don't think BMW is known for shifter feel anyways).
Steering felt tremendously-heavy at low speeds (almost excessively), but felt much better once at speed (though it could be because of the aftermarket wheels on the car I tested).
I think of it like a nicer, grown-up and softer BRZ.

Wait 128i with a 6 cyl? So you’re talking about a E82 with a N52? Those were from the last good years of BMW and drive absolutely nothing like the new ones.
