I've not slid the X5 around- I am guessing that a whole lot of stuff would kick in, and be noticeable...but in normal driving, even aggressive, you feel no 'discontinuities' as a driver

It did...I actually used some of your definitions like obtrusive and discontinuities here because they so well described what I was wondering about...I was just hoping to get a few more opinions from folks who have it.

Thanks for replying again Ard...I really appreciate you taking the time respond.

It's funny, I had myself just about convinced in getting AD, then we just drove a 35d with sport activity package and i really liked the normal suspension... even with 20" Dunlop RFTs. Now I don't know what to do again.
