And the reason I feel the harshness is because Im so used to a softer, more comfortable ride. It is my daily driver, after all! Quality of our roads, tie into the "daily driver" reason. At some point, I will go with the Bilstein HD's all around on the E60, just as I did on my E39. That felt like a semi-sports pkg, w/o the unforgiving ride. Thats a great product, BTW. In summary, SP is not for me, I guess.
Yes, see, I am actually one of those pervs, who loves the hard ride etc. but that's just it - to each his own, as they say.

Whatever the differences in preferences, I think you've got a great looking car there
