3rd row seats cuts out the torque vectoring and anti roll which incorporates the special rear diff when you order the full adaptive drives sports option, that's why I never order 3rd row seats.

If you have never had it before you won't miss it, the X6 originally got it first and then it was added to the first X5M in the E70 model. Once you drive the new X5 with it you will understand but if you are going to have 3rd seat with kids you are not going to be driving around in sports mode to get the benefit of it anyway.

I have never found out what the 3rd row seats does to the floor pan of the X5 for the feature not to be installed, someone on the forum would know, but most likely would be the extra bulk of the adaptive suspension parts and maybe the larger diff?
