Test Drive in NYC
I have an E90 with the sport suspension, and find it too hard riding on poor quality roads that are all too common here. I test drove an F34 with the regular suspension on both New York City streets and on higher speed highways. I found the ride better than my E90, but not "floaty". I have not tried the adaptive suspension since most dealers do not stock it for a test drove purposes. I would never order any BMW with a suspension harder riding the the standard suspension if you live in an area with anything other than perfect smooth roads. I assume the adaptive suspension gives you the option of a firmer setting for great handling. I would most likely never use it, so why pay extra for a capability I would not use? I don't know your road situation, but perhaps my experience will help.
