All the touch points, steer wheel, shifter, handbrake, iDrive are carried over. Same applies if I own a current gen 3 or 5 series I wouldn't get the M model of the same platform but I will wait for the next gen M. 1M is a different animal performance wise, I get that, but a car to me is the entire package from capability, design aesthetic, reliability, and cost.
