Questions & Answers
Hi how do these ride compared to the newer models with adjustable suspension gozi (100 • 9:51 pm, Thu, 8 Jan )I wouldn't know sorry. This E83 model has sport suspension, which offers a firm ride as befits its M-Sport pedigree making it an excellent drivers car, however not so great if one is looking for a soft ride. I found it fine on all roads, the sports seats help absorb impacts, and it gives better feedback and handling than standard suspension simonh6 (155 • Thursday, 8 January 2026 )
