Have been driving my 04 E53 with Sports Package in the last few years and I like the way it handles with the Sports Package. We have recently decided to order a new X5, most likely the X5 50i.

One thing I noticed about the MY2013 E70 is that the 'Sports Package' is for appearance only, and does not offer any change to the suspensions. I will be ordering the car with the Sports Package since I like the 20inch wheels and the black interior (I don't like the M-Sports Package's wheels and aero kit)

I spent some time with my friend's E70 35i Premium months ago and the car feels a little soft(at least compared to my E53 Sports Package), not sure if it's the standard suspension or the wheels on his car. I will be doing some test drives next week but really want to get some opinions from you guys...

1. For you guys who drove an E53 with Sports Package before, how do you like the standard suspension on the E70?

2. Anyone put a set of KW V3 on their E70 yet? How do you guys like it compared to the stock setup? Are there any other coilovers that are comparable to the KW V3?

3. Any opinion on Adaptive Drive vs. KW V3?
