If the CS removes the harshness then that's a win, but don't make I sound like the ZCP has "lots" wrong. That's nonsense. I bet just a switch to PS4S' removes considerable harshness.

I always found my F80 M3 comfortable, but my Quadrifoglio is on a whole other planet of suspension compliance in comparison. You have to drive them back to back to understand. It is NOT the tires.

I agree - the suspension (dampening and rebound) are much better sorted than the M3/4 and its variants.

I also think the new AMGs are better sorted with the facelift too, whereas before they had the type of harsh ride the M cars did.

Not doubting it one bit and for sure not suggesting that tires will make the M3 feel like the Q. That wasn't my point at all.

My point was that the suggestion that the CS "fixes all of the F80's problems" sounds absurd as the ZCP cars are impressive machines....albeit harsh....and moving from PSS' to PS4S' would improve this notably.
