Hi,

Due to limited mileage that I have driven both versions, it is not possible to answer your questions in a comphrehensive way. And the version 223 VDC is not available for 535i, which means that I didn't test it. The fact is that M-Sport suspension includes stiffer roll bars compared to standard, but 2VA includes hydraulic roll bars, which can be controlled electronically. I am happy with the M-Sport suspension and it's foreseeable and logical driving features. And as I wrote before, it's still comfortable enough for me, and much more comfortable than the E60 with M-Sport suspension.

The best advice that I can give is: just go and drive the F10 - I presume that after you return to your E60 you will miss the F10 until you order it and get the delivery. It's just so much more of a car compared to the old good E60!
