You shouldn't have to go aftermarket on an M car to get that rock solid suspension/chassis control.

I will also add that I test drove a 17' ZCP a couple weeks ago and while it's getting better, still has some rebound control issues.

BMW M division needs to fire its suspension tuning team and get someone better in there.
Have you tried a passive suspension + 18s car? I agree regarding f30 rebound control issues (I had one with option 704 passive suspension) but didn't have that issue with my f80

My e89 z435 stock adaptive suspension was a mess too. I almost didn't bother to get the f80 it was so bad.

My guess.. they had to compromise due to commuter duties. Would have been better just to have 1 fixed aggressive setting (which is why I got the passive suspension, and then decided to just daily drive a more sports focused car)
