Looks great and congratulations!
I feel so much better finally reading a review (and a lay person at that) of the passive suspension. Very glad to read you have no complaints thus far. I was really debating adding the Adaptive M at the 11th hour, but I didn't want someone to take my "man card" away (you reading this Nacho? )

Yeah, from his pics, the gap doesn't look as massive as many of the auto show pictures. Perhaps the cars at the auto show really did have the shipping blocks still installed?
