Ol' Rocky Top

I've done a lot of reading on here about the Sport suspension and the argument regarding whether or not its worth getting. Over the weekend, I took a road trip from Knoxville to Charlotte through the Smoky Mountains (I-40).

Hands down...get it. I was giving it way more speed than recommended by TDOT (and the law). It hugged corners more tightly than Ben Roethlisberger in a bathroom. Seriously, I drove our RRS through this very same stretch or highway and felt the weight alone made it feel very unstable through the windy roads. But the 4.8i had more than enough horsepower and felt just as nimble through the turns as my 328i (w/ sport pkg) did when I was blessed to drive it on the Autobahn.

So, if you have the coinage and are a spirited driver...it should be a no brainer
