What is the deference of having DDC alone from having Adaptive Drive since I also have the selector for comfort, sport, sport+ ?
When I was testing, DDC is not worth it. On Normal mode (which i spent 98% of my driving) the car felt unconnected from the road, non DDC equipped car on Normal was so much better. But when I was testing the car equipped with full Adaptive Drive, now that made a huge difference, specially body-roll over corners. If BMW would offer that on 2.0L diesel engines I would definitely get it, but unfortunately for smaller engines there is only DDC option which I was happy to pass. If you can afford 2VA, go for it, you will not regret it, if not, ditch the DDC and maybe go with passive M-Suspension if you want a bit sportier 5er.
