How do you define ride quality? It is kind of subjective and depends on for what you are looking.

I have '16 F15 xdrive40e M-sport on 19" (2T6) & '16 F10 535 Msport on 19" (2ND). Both have 456 Multi-Contour and X5 also has vented seats.

The X5 has the advantage of being higher up for visibility, but is also softer ride. It also gets great gas mileage. If you want better handling, you want DHP or upgrade to X5M or X6M.

The F10 has better acceleration and sportier drive. Both are very comfortable and have great transport capabilities. I had a '13 Pre-LCI F10 and the improved sports suspension is a nice upgrade. I am looking forward to the G30.
