The wait was/is obnoxious for several suspension options related to this chassis. And even with the long wait, some companies managed to botch their releases. At least the M-Perf ones will be pretty solid when it finally gets released.

List of other obnoxious release timlines.

- Bilstein Damptronic
- Bilstein PSS10
- Ohlins Road & Track
- Swift Spec R Springs
- Eibach US Pro Kit Springs

I hate to say it, but I'm pretty sure I saw a blurb somewhere that claimed these won't be out until mid-2016. I hope I'm remembering that wrong 'cause I want these NOW.

It really doesn't matter, if you're after just adjustable springs, you can get the KW version now.

I'm waiting for the Bilstein B-16 Damptronics full coil-overs

Yeah, I know there's some very good options out right now, but for me the BMW kit is most appealing since it would be warranty (and lease) friendly.

What can I say...I'm a mod sissy.
