Got to tear up the new BMW 335i twin turbos yesterday at Autobahn. We had a group out there

Any comments on the open diff? I have never owned a car like that.
All of my rear and front drivers had limited slip. Were you able to light up the inside rear when accelerating hard out of a slower corner? I am guessing you turned the traction control off.
Regardless of the allure of twin turbos, I am still not sold on the styling.

is a different kind/viscosity oil used for break-in/factory fill?
Another possibility I can think of is the newness of the engines, tight seals, etc, making a lot more heat in high loads. How many miles on these cars?
I'm not trying to make excuses for BMW here, that seems like a MAJOR f-up on their part, but I'd like to consider other things before bashing them outright.
