I routinely rack up 1000-1500 miles on a rental in a work week anyway. I was also thinking I might be able to meet up with you to scope out your suspension - I am considering 'de-sporting' my shocks and springs and you had mentioned in another thread that yours is tight but tolerable with sport components in good condition.
I personally like the Sport suspension settings, though I have limited experience driving comparison E53s without - a couple test rides and my S-in-L's 2001 3.0L automatic. If in ATL, you are welcome to try mine out. If you are a real sport, time your trip to end it with the local BMWCCA club's Road Atlanta driving course the weekend after Labor Day ..... bring the proper helmet [not a cheesehead .....]
