Retired 2006 525i
Yesterday I drove my friends brand new 525i with sports package. I did not feel any difference from my non-sport e60.
Thoughts?

I'd say that sounds pretty unlikely, but we don't know how you drive.

My Ride: 2013 535i (White with Oyster Interior. Premium Package, Navigation, Technology Pacakge, Park Distance Control, and Rear View Camera)
06 sport package doesn't include Active Steering. And it does not increase any hourse power.
But for 2k, I think it's money well spend.
Sport package includes:
Sport Suspension Calibration
Active Roll Stabilization
Satin Chrome Shadowline Exterior Trim
12 way power front sport seats
18" wheels and tires
Lowered car for better handling (I love the look)

ARS or not I've always been able to tell the difference in the suspension alone. I've always felt that the sport suspension should be the standard.
