What was the destination on your HUD?

Looks like fun driving.
Destination was "Grosser Feldberg".

Found it under "points of interest", "Other points of interest".

It surprised me that it's not under "Nature" or something like that...


And: YES! A hell of a ride.
I love it so much to drive up there it's unreal.
You can feel that the car is perfectly built for roads like that!

I have a nice idea for the next meet. Maybe you can make a picture of a car with the active suspension and without the active suspension making a fast turn. I've seen the drawings in the BMW folder but it doesn't show what is really happening.

Today I took a roundabout at a rather high speed and noticed that the car was hanging more over then the car I testdrove a few months ago. So I guess that car was equipped with the active suspension.

For potential buyers this could be an interesting comparisson.

I'm up for that.... I have the non active car for the test! Iceman? Same turn at the same speed with a camera on a tripod along the road operated by a 3rd party.

That's no problem.
There are a lot of curves with parking lots. We will do our best...
