What do you mean by clunky? Is it the transmission? Or just how the suspension is tuned?

You have to wait for the oil to warm up before you can rev it too high. I've been told to keep it at 3k or below until the oil temp gauge starts to move. So until then, you're slower than a dump truck leaving a stoplight. You can feel the motor noticeably "loosen up" and get more down to party once it's warm, and then the car is fantastic.

In the 328, I'd just twist the key and drive it, oil temp be damned. It didn't have nearly as much of a Jeyll/Hyde thing going on, but it also wasn't as fun or fast either.
