Doesn't the M5 weigh +/- 4200 lbs.?? And I don't know that the M5 has a stiffer suspension than a 550i Sport. I've driven an M3 with and without the dynamic suspension and both feel "softer" than mine; even with the M3's suspension set to max. Maybe it's the weight.

True, true the M5 weighs more. Actually, even the M3 cabrio weighs more (which is probably why it can't take a 550 sport to 60!!!)

I'm not the biggest fan of the ASR, and the M cars don't have it. That's what I meant by "stiffer".

And yeah, the new M3 rides seemingly smoother than my 550! Odd.
