Interesting... So maybe that 2014 I'm looking at by luck didn't have its sport suspension deleted?

I found this post from a few years ago describing this whole sport suspension delete thing works. Is this accurate? It would make sense, as why else would BMW NA let people order an M Sport Package, which implies those buyers want a sportier ride, yet intentionally delete the Sport Suspension that is part of the package?

My thought, is that when you order M-sport in the US, they delete the sport suspension because the sport suspension is a "fixed" suspension, meaning no adjustment of the damping, etc is possible. The M-sport comes with some sort of adjustable suspension, just not as "dynamic" as that in the DHP, meaning it can only adjust the rates of all 4 corners at the same time, not indivually like the DHP.
So I don't think the sports suspension delete of the M-sport package is actually giving you the standard suspension...that just doesn't make any sense given the nature of that package. I think we are getting an adjustable suspension, just not as advanced as the EDC in the DHP.
