I worked for BMW years ago and if my memory serves me correctly, I thought the "window down blip while opening the door" activated within the door handle pull itself. On the Zs it's activated with the door switch itself as you may know. Well mine catches and makes it uncomfortable to open the door, as I purposely delay opening it too much to let the window roll down first.

I shaved the plastic rod in the door pin switch down to the minimum that I could possibly do to no avail. It still catches. My buddy has an 08 G37 and he noticed immediately when I first showed him my car. The he shows me his G and it rolls down prolly twice as far as my Z with no catch.

Is this a bad design that I have to live with? Feels awful.
