(2) Don;t know. Seems odd.
(3) You are thinking of "Adaptive Drive" (versus active steering), and nio it is not teh same as the sports suspension. Adaptiove Drive is no longer included in the U.S. Sports Package. Adaptive Drive is an active suspension system; for example, it reduces body roll in turns.
(4) Self-leveling will simply raise adn level the suspension when there is additonal or unequal load in the vehicle. It does not affect handling per se. Adapative Drive is desigend to improve handling.

Yeah. I didn't see Code 220 as an option anywhere. But I remember when I was looking back at the 128 wheels in 2008 on BMW's website, I could have sworn that the self leveling was a requirement.
Is the "Sports" button by the gear box (not DS mode) part of Adaptive Drive? Would driving with the "sports" button off be the same as not having adaptive drive? I do notice more body roll when it is off.
So if I don't intend to tow things, would I even notice if I don't have self-leveling? (with only a passenger on one side of the passenger seat)?
