I've seen a few posts where people have regretted NOT getting the sports package. I'm wondering if anyone who HAS the sports package regrets getting it? (i.e. too harsh of ride, don't like active steering, etc.)
I like the sports package features, but I also like a luxury ride. I don't want to make a mistake in getting the sports package and then regretting it.
Thanks for any input.

I test drove a 545 with sports package and loved it. I threw the wife around so much she made me order the comfort seats with the adjustable side bolsters!
Being a BMW newbie it seems strange to me to get a car that is less than 100% of the suspension capability. That is why I chose 545 over the E500.

I think the sport suspension i an excellent compromise between sport and comfort.
It?s of course biased to the sport side but anyway gives a comfy ride. The DD also helps making the car sporty when pushing on twisting roads and keep the comfort when driving around town.
Comfort seats adds the final touch to this sport/comfort setup. Very comfortable for long drives and still gives a good grip for the body when driving more active.
