If you really want to go fast, launch mode can be tuned in any car. But OP doesn’t seem like the type to modify cars that significantly so..
Here’s how it works in my 2018 750i… (Note you must have the M-Sport package.) It’s freaking violent, but will get you to 60 like the magazine tests. (4.3 seconds for my car, which is crazy considering its weight.)
1. Traction off
2. Sport mode button
3. Move lever left to the sport shift setting
4. Press the brake pedal. Hard.
5. Gas pedal to the floor.
You’ll see a flag on the dash, and then you release the brakes. It’s a perfect launch, every time. I have done it twice.

Every car has launch mode if you know what you’re doing

Most of the cars with sports transmission have launch control last I remember
Yup, I just got a 430i and it has launch control (standard I believe)
My m340 does.
My rental 430i had it - though not sure why you’d need it in that car lol
Yes, my 540i has launch.

Yes, 330i has one.

This is a weird hill to die on OP. I’m a BCG partner. I don’t and have never worked at Deloitte.

All cars with sport transmission (SAT) have launch control.
