It's more of a handful once you turn ESC off though (sport mode doesn't cut it imo). I find my 335i's handling behavior beyond the limit much easier to deal with. So much so that I prefer to drive with DSC/TC off about 90% of the time.
I think you may be in the minority here. I know I wouldn't have driven my PROcede v3 335i with DTC/DSC completely off (way too much wheel/tire spin for my taste), and I won't be driving my C63 AMG with ESP completely off either; I may try the "sport" mode though.
