One of the points they emphasize is that the flatter torque curve of the 1M is more usable on public roads.
Agree that the 1M is a great car but definately not more usable on all public roads..............here in Germany on the autobahn the S65 is insane at higher speeds - i have no doubt the 1M wouldn't stand a chance above 100mph. Would definately like to test drive one though and yes in most daily driving you can probably enjoy more of its motor more of the time.
