The answer could be no. But the answer is also subjective, I feel. The suspension has been factory engineered to perform based on the driving dynamics and standards intended for this car to meet. According to the reviews (again, subjectively directed), there is no mention of the possibility of enhancing the performance characteristics by employing M-Performance suspension.

Does this mean it is a waste of money? No. Does it mean it will deter people who want it from getting it? Probably not.

The option is there if folks choose to spec their cars with it. I myself would like a coilover option covered by a BMW warranty that is also engineered specifically for the car, and will take whatever other advantages come from it.


Sorry for the rant, sir. It's been a long day fighting ignorance on the internet.
