One other very juvenile thing I miss from the E63 tranny is that in Drive you could rev the engine just a bit before the gear would engage allowing you blip the throttle and listen to that engine in traffic for extra entertainment.

The exhaust is addictive. God it is good. You are able to forgive any shortcoming just because of the exhaust
.
The rev matching blips are pretty cool too, I concur. AMG's have always mastered downshifts (even when the tranny was slow as hell like in the 7G Tronic).
By the way, what are your thoughts on the M5 so far ? You have such an amazing collection, that your insight on the F90 is far more interesting than anyone's here (especially mine). I really believe that the M5 F90 is right now the closest thing to a 911 Turbo S. A little bit blunt, but incredibly capable and effective.
