Truly is a shame that it is embedded and not front end disclosed. At least I knew up front I could only do 2-3 launches in a row before I had to let it cool off. M5 was the best saloon I have ever owned.

Wife still has a X3MC that will probably hit the limit soon. Very fun ride as is , but will lose that feature.

Ironically, I can launch my Turbo S over and over without a cool down or total limit. Holds 5200-5400 rpm, then release the foot brake. I watched a single Turbo S launch over 50 times at a Porsche day at Barber. Was brutal. I would not do it. But it held like a champ.

BMW will have to fix this as it becomes more public. Black eye stuff.
