Personally, of those options listed I chose the comfort seats. That was a must-have for me. They are the best seats! I found the sport seats to have a high bolster that made it a pain to get in and out of the car! I agree, personally, with the other poster in that adaptive drive is the only way to go in a BMW car. I've had three prior cars, all with the sport pkg. With this X5, I'm simply not planning on driving it like I have my cars. Now, if money was no object, of course I'd get it. We did drive back-to-back, one with, one without. For normal daily driving, we did not find enough of a difference to opt for it. Comfort seats all the way!! You won't regret it. I also added the heated seats, too.
