Active Steering is the real deal!!

if it was that easy to determine whether or not I have active steering then I do have it then since I have something on that side with too many damn hoses. The weird part is that this does not show up as an option for the car through the VIN when I ran it back then prior to the purchase. It didn't even have ARS listed, only sport suspension and dynamic drive (whatever that means).
226 SPORTS SUSPENSION SETTINGS
229 DYNAMIC DRIVE
I just posted my VIN again in the DIY forum so another forum member can pull out all the options again to verify with the list that I have.

Update.
Hmm, found my VIN option printout from purchase.....guess what?? I do have Active Roll Stabization as part of ZSP (Sport Package) code 229 (ARS)!!!
I recall even with stock suspension, there is some body roll in hard-cornering. With Bilsteins CO's, there none.
So really, it's the Active Steering that had the surreal smoothness, Somewhat detached feedback.

You've got the active stabilizers. Just drive a non Dynamic Drive E60 and you'll know the difference right away.
