New X5 ordering: suspension questions

Hi guys. planing to place a new order X5, F15.

1) Which one of these will give softer ride comfort/suspension? sDrive35i or xDrive35i? or there is no difference between S and X versions?

2) Attached please see two JPEG files (screen shot from the bmwusa.com Configurator). There is Dynamic Damper Control+rear axle air suspension for 1500 $ and Dynamic Performance Control + Active Roll stabilization for 4500 $. which one of these will give softer ride comfort/suspension?

3) What is Active Steering which costs 1550$? Does it anyhow help to obtain softer ride comfort?

Thanks for helping to sort this out.

Suspension options

Go to this thread where you can see a chart and read the discussion

Active Steering changes the steering ratio so that you need fewer turns of the wheel at slow speeds (to make parking easier) but then makes steering tighter at higher speeds.

I have it on my E70 and it is a great feature but seems less needed on the F15 with electric steering versus the E70 steering (heavier). Just my 2c on Active Steering.

Good luck.
