We didn't buy an M3 or M5, so if any of us are itching to hammer our X7's, maybe we bought the wrong vehicle.
My advice, just drive the thing like you actually care about it and you will be fine. If you drive it like a rental car, again, maybe you got the wrong vehicle.

I would say there is no difference between all three in how hard you can drive them and your expectations of performance of each platform on the streets.
. I absolutely flog the crap out of my X7M50i as much as I do my M2 Comp and both seem to ask for more when I am done. The X7M50i is a beast and fully capable (with DHP) to thrill you if you let it. It will embarrass many traditional sports cars. I learned my lesson years ago when a X5M walked away from my 911 on the highway. Todays X7M50i is faster than that X5M was.
