I have driven several thousand miles on an 06 M3 w/ comp package. I especially enjoyed driving it in M mode. On the new M3, I wasn't planning on getting tech package, but was planning the EDC and several other options.

My question is, if I don't get the tech package, I don't get an M mode button right? My console will only have EDC and DSC off, but the other button will be a blank?

I will be really disappointed if this is the case. I don't see why you need navigation to be able to use the more aggressive throttle setting. Thanks in advance!
Incorrect. Even without the ZTP, you do get one more aggressive throttle setting, which is the 'power' button closest to the dash of the three buttons. The middle will be a blank if you don't get EDC, and the rear button is of course DSC OFF. This is also the route I intend to take.
