Hello from the E53 board - E70 question on ride height

Hi, I've been on the E53 board for a while, and now we're moving into E70 land. The wife and I just bought a '12 xdrive35d, white on black, running boards, sport, style 214 wheels, etc. Will be selling her '04 3.0i automatic but keeping my '01 5 speed manual X5.

In punching the VIN into bmwvin.com, in the list of (many) options, we've got P330A SPORTS PACKAGE and S225A STANDARD SUSPENSION. Being used to the E53, these would seem at odds with each other. You either had sports settings or std.

On the E53, the ride height is about 1 inch lower with the sports settings. Is that the same on the E70? Or does this mean that our new car has everything from the sports package EXCEPT the springs and struts/shocks (but what else would there be?)?

Anyway, just a curiosity, and I could find anything definitive with a quick search.
