I must say that I love the M50d but it does have disadvantages. 40d (new one) is a good compromise, does not compare to E71 (I owned previously). Also if you add more power ( m performance for 30d) then you cannot have tow hitch with higher load capacity.
I have the active steering and I think this extra is a joke. Yeah, it's hydraulic, but so what? The wheel is so dead that you can't feel anything from the road.
And yes, you do not feel the road but the ressistance from turning the wheel in sport mode is much more expressed than with models without AS.
