I do wonder if alignment jobs get insanely expensive with the 4-wheel steering though. Apparently on a Q7 an alignment is like $700
IAS has a weird feel and learning curve but I've come to love having the option on my G05. it effectively shortens your wheel base at low speeds and extends it at high speeds so it's a win win. steering is more direct with IAS or at least I think it is. through the corners you get used to how it handles with the sport differential, it's very satisfying

well I'd imagine they're not cheap I'll have to ask what they cost on my x5
