On bad roads it can be quite jarring, even in my non-comp with Michelin 20s and the SW upgrade. A little more compliance on bad pavement wouldn't be a bad thing and they can do it without sacrificing the "///M" feel.

PS: Few if any buy it for track days especially since BMW CCA puts X models in the "baby pool" group on track, so why not allow comfort mode to be comfort mode?
