I know it is a sports sedan, but heck, I don't drive "sporty" everyday and those times that you need some comfort it lets you down. In other words the balance is gone between good performance and good ride comfort.
**** However, last night I deflated all 4 tires to 2,2 bar (220 kPa) and the ride comfort is much improved now.

Slightly lowered tire pressure will improve ~10% ride quality.
Just be ware that if you are loaded with passengers you will not speed over 180km/h or at risk.
We will see 'airmatic' / 'active suspension' be implemented to lower end models of MB and BMW cars hopefully soon.
