Might also be an interesting combination for you, so watch this space. I will post my reflections.
Anyway, IMO if you really want a sporty ride, get yourself an M3 or a 335i with M suspension. The f10 is just to big.
Hi Ed,

The 3 series is too small for my family needs, especially a coupe. I just want to configure the 5 series in such a way that it gives the sportiest ride possible for that car.

I'd be very interested to know your thoughts after you pick up your car. In terms of the ACS springs I note that on their website for what they describe as the 5 series 'with self levelling system (ie adaptive drive) only the front two springs are changed, not the rear two. Doesn't that sound strange? Does that mean that the front of the car will be lower than the rear?

Thanks
