thanks for the response guys, the general consensus among u lot is adaptive drive makes the beast really sharp and more focused in the bends and our of of corners, what am i going to do now??? i live in malaysia and all the x6's come without us having the option to specify any extras etc. We have to take it as it is or custom order the beast and wait around 8 months which is crazy amounts of time to wait for a car IMHO! anyway, im posting another thread on the specs sheet hoping that any of you could give me some feedback on options that have been selected, positive and negative greatly appreciated!
