As to the M3/4; a MT with passive suspension, IMO keeps this car as close to its roots as possible, fun, simple and predictable,...during these times of public cravings for hi-tech electric self drive & self parking cars, an era of good or bad that we find ourselves in, we are being robbed of driving the "ultimate" experience.
Couldn't agree with you more. I'll have other cars that can will be more comfortable than an M3 with adaptive shocks anyway, so I'd rather just get something that as you say, is the essence of the Ultimate Driving Machine.

Thank you both for saving me $5500 and skipping ZCP. Signal Green stripper it is
