jigaro is on a distinguished road
I bought it lowered from U.S. and i already went back to factory set up, but i find my current ride, still noisy when going over bumps, i don't know maybe it's just me.

The exhaust note of my 4.8is used to be unbelievable, actually it even sounded meaner and better than my friends 09 cayenne turbo s

I hear form different people the M does not sound as good as 4.8is, just like you guys sayd, and i think thats a no no

I have the dynamic handling pkg which is more of a sporty ride but still smooth and very responsive. The active steering makes all the difference too. The exhaust note is what sold me on the new 4.8! When I took it for a test drive, I had to have it!

As for the X5M, it is even better than the new 4.8 in every way. You have to drive it to feel it. Much more responsive steering and handling. Completely feels like a different car! Smooth, powerful and solid!

As for your 4.8, I see you have it lowered AND you have the 21" bigger wheels with runflats...and you're wondering why it's not smooth over bumps??
