A car is usually labeled as a driver’s car when it provides the necessary feedback to the driver so you can tell what is going on, and faithfully translates the driver’s inputs into actual on the road behavior. When this two way flow is palpable, you have a driver’s car. The actual skid pad and acceleration numbers are irrelevant, and how well you can control the proceedings is key, especially on the limit.
I have a nice E46 330ci in the garage, running on good all season tires. Definitely a driver’s car even though it cannot even begin to touch the performance envelope of my M3.
Cannot comment on the M440i since I haven’t driven it.

Absolutely. I don't know who started this skipad means driver's enjoyment madness.
