How would you rate the new M-sport suspension compared to your old 545?

Love the yellow reflector on the new m-tech bumpers. They really add a sporty feature to the car. Does anyone know if that new m-tech bumper with the yellow reflector is available for the non LCI models?? Thanks.

Sorry to repeat myself, but this car feels much more like my E39. That's to say it feels much smaller than it is. It's very tossable, it's tighter and has a much better steering feel, but at least at this point, I don't think the ride is any harsher. The suspension and steering are so much better than my old car that I'm wondering whether there were undetected problems with that car (either hardware or software).

A few more pics from the road. Leaving Monaco tomorrow for Provence.
Driving thru Simplon Pass from Switzerland to Italy:
In Italy, preparing for Monaco's Beautiful Car Police:
Monaco - the mother ship of beautiful cars and beautiful boats. Three weeks before the big race. btw, the official car of the Monaco rich and famous is the Bentley coupe, convertible and sedan. Must have seen at least 25 of them over the last two days.
