Have you driven older BMWs? Not sure how old you are. In 2012 we still had hydraulic steering, now it's electric. When you closed the doors on an older model, they were solid and heavy. Now they try to reduce the weight and the doors feel like a tin can. I could go on, but you get the idea.
Bingo, my 09 m3 is a joy to drive with the hydraulic steering - feel very connected to the road. Nailed in on the doors, heavy as hell. I did see a member recently install a soft close system on his e90 m3 though, that was pretty neat and innovative.

Agree with bulk of the comments, they're too different to compare.
