Adaptive M suspension

What is the downside of not having it in M4; It is my first time ordering an M car. I will rarely take it to track and mostly do spirited drives around CA, and daily bumper to bumper commute in SF Bay. Any advice?

I ordered two, got a third. MY advice: Get what you need. Love the suspension. I love keeping it on old men cry settings at all times.

The thing is, you quoted one of the few who know their stuff here. You do know we all have an inferior complex?

I read that when he wrote it. damn he and @karussell are strange people, the quiet tone is enough to tell a lot.

I think its the only must have option on the car. just read the technical paper on it.

and from real world the adaptive suspension is ideally suited for you with california's wonderful 3rd world pitted roads.

bonus is you can say your suspension measured and adjusted itself 1600 times a second. bmw needs the ocd suspension engineers to work on the navi unit now.
