Good luck, man. I dare to think changing the suspension, I guarantee my wife complain :thumbsdown:

You are lucky that your wife has her own har har. You can do whatever you want on e60.

Dynamic Driving Control.
How would you like to drive today? Dynamic Driving Control, fitted as standard, gives you total control to meet your or your passengers' needs in the BMW 5 Series Sedan.

More A touch of the paddle next to the gearshift lever changes the level of driving pleasure from NORMAL to SPORT: the engine responds more spontaneously to the accelerator and the eight-speed transmission Steptronic lets the engine rev high before quickly changing up a gear. At the same time the steering and chassis tighten. Touch the paddle again to enter the SPORT + mode where the Dynamic Stability Control allows controlled drifting to the limit.

The currently active mode is permanently displayed underneath the speedometer, and in the SPORT mode the drive train and chassis settings can be quickly and individually configured using the iDrive Controller for dynamic driving on badly surfaced roads for example.

The COMFORT mode is available with Dynamic Damping Control which provides both the driver and passengers with maximum comfort on longer journeys.


every thing you need to pay.
active steering
active Cruise Control
active roll reduction
adaptive Drive
Dynamic Damping Control

KC it say DD is standard in the 5er F10 now.
Dynamic Damping and Dynamic driving control is still the same trick:

Heavier steering : Similar to when you switch from D to M, the steering is slightly heavier.
Harder suspension : Similar to current EDC (electric damper control - ????) I think.

If I am not mistaken by reading the detail price list received just yesterday, the Dynamic Damping and Dynamic driving control is a part of the "Adaptive Drive" (as known as Dynamic Drive in E60) option for F10 (well, at least that's the case in HK), and it costs HK$35K pre-tax.
"Active steering" is an option available for F10, it's separated from the "Adaptive Drive" option, and will cost you HK$20.5K pre-tax.

All local car test report are showing a car that's pre-build before even the first patch of F10 arriving HK this month. That's not exactly HK spec, since Sports Automatic Transmission with paddle shift is standard (except 523i Executive edition), and you can see no paddles in any local car magazine. Just... I hope that I am wrong!
