active roll stabilization is a must for this car. Having it on my car makes spirited driving so much fun..
make sure your bmw has one before you buy it!

Take the VIN number to a friendly dealership and they will run it through the system for you.

I have a touring with Dynamic Drive. I want to add 19" wheels. Does anybody know if it's possible to lower a car with Dynamic Drive?

Thanks,
Liam
