On the other hand the M6 has a decent system. Hopefully the F8x will have something similar to this.

Making sure the customer can "feel" the difference is very important, and all OEM's have this concern. Can you explain what you mean by jacking?
Speed limiting has nothing to do with the suspension or suspension mode.
It's also important to know what version of the F30 you're referring to and what tires were on it. The one I drove exhibited good body control, felt linear and natural, and was relatively plush. The tires had some impact noise, and the electric steering poorly tuned, but those are separate issues and not a function of the adaptive suspension.
