Shadow - you may need to concentrate on the fact that this is a 7 series nad not a 3 series - a MUCH bigger car with more of a luxury ride. We just sold our beloved 325 after almost 15 years of FUN driving. We are impressed with our 740iL/s - but it does not handle as nimbly as our 3 - even with EDC engaged ( but it is very impressive for the power and size of car!!). My point - you can go the DINAN or other route for springs / wheels / shocks / etc. But then you have to wonder why you did not get the 740i/sport. OR - enjoy the different ride - it is still the ultimate :-)
