I think the steering complaints and sound will be corrected with the CS and updated... higher performance versions
I don't think steering will be fixed and exhaust is fixable at all. Thru F80/82/87 revisions, BMW already know how to make electronic steering a little better. M5 is what it is now is BMW's intention.
They are saving for the comp pack. Theres the garbage version and the real m5, which is the comp pack. I don't know why they even bother releasing this. Brand image is definitely something they don't care so much.
BMW have had near on 7-8 years to get electric steering feel sorted since the switch from hydraulic. If it was going to be sorted it would have been for this release. I suspect the need to have a lighter feel for a heavy car in non-spirited daily driving is taking precedence.

Porsche (from what I've read) seem to be the only company who've nailed feel from EPS. Might I suggest BMW buy a few and work out how (?)
