M2 CS Suspension, Adaptive or Fixed????

thebiglubinsky · 02-11-2018, 09:50 AM

Do you guys think BMW will offer the M3/M4's adaptive suspension? I passed on the car cause of the rough ride but if they offered a more comfortable suspension option, that would be a game changer.

Being a more "hardcore" version of the original car, I'm guessing it's still going to be fixed.

I think I would still have my M2 (if it were adaptive - maybe). And in the comparison with the RS3 the suspension was his top complaint with the M2.

For the Competition none of the VINs show adaptive suspension, so safe to say it's fixed. That said, we don't know if the suspension has been retuned.

Retuned suspension for sure. It’s meant to be a sportier model and also the change of engine would dictate the need to do so.

I think it will be fixed just to make people who feel the ride is harsh buy a different car with more options. Also it's possible the M2 you drove (did you drive one????) had it's shipping blocks still on the suspension, making it ride rough.

Alike in base M2 VIN build sheets, nowhere in 'M2 Competition' VIN build sheets any reference whatsoever to the Adaptive M Suspension (BMW code 2VF).

Riding a horse: just one setting and that's it. It's just a matter of getting a good horse.

Well for costs sake, I hope it has fixed suspension. Adaptive suspension as standard equipment is going to make it more expensive.
