Someone needs to post specifics about the Msport suspension, maybe even some pics. Even if I get a September build 535 and it has 704 Msport suspension on the sticker, I'm still going to wonder if I really got the 704.

If you can secure an early September allocation, you might be able to take delivery before the coupon expires, but it will be tight. This whole issue has me beyond pi$$ed off. Had I known, I never would have taken delivery last week. BMW knew, they just didn't want their dealers to have a bunch of undelivered MSports on their hands.

I have an ordered 550i at port, don't know what to do. I asked the dealer to view a vehicle inquiry report for a September build and see if 704 appears as a line item. They said they would "look into it"

Go over 100mph, switch lanes or go fast on a highway on ramp. If the car is stable and planted with no floaty feeling - u have the Msport Susp. On pre-LCI, Its really night and day difference. |

I'm generally quite pleased, except for potentially having an unsellable (or at least hard to sell) MSport with the wrong suspension. We know from researching the part numbers that the 2014 MSport struts are different than the 2013 struts so that suspension has likely been improved as well. |

Okay, there are a lot of people who don't know what they're talking about. I placed my order last week, and my sales manager just emailed me the vehicle inquiry/window sticker, and it's listed at the bottom "M-Sport suspension". Now, I don't think that BMW is misrepresenting themselves and the car doesn't have it when it's on the build order.
There are apparently a lot of people out there with a lot of disinformation! |

Does your sticker have M-Sport suspension listed at the bottom? |

CONGRATS to everyone for not letting BMW get away with this!
This is why I love the BMW community, the enthusiast are still passionate, demanding and detail oriented. The M Sport is finally an *M* Sport again, as it truly became in 2013 when we got this suspension.

Effective May 21st? Does this mean they've known for almost three months and kept it quiet? If so, the change wasn't due to complaints on message boards. We didn't even know for sure the 704 was absent back then.
