    Fahrweise.
  • Optisch attraktive schwarze Edelstahldämpfer mit roten
    Schraubenfedern und blauen Federtellern.
    Vergleich zum Wettbewerb
  • Das Gewindefahrwerk wird mit der Erfahrung von professionellen
    Testfahrern abgestimmt.
  • Die Tests wurden auf mehreren Rennstrecken durchgeführt.
  • Das Fahrwerk wurde auch für verschiedene Straßenbedingungen
    ausgelegt.
  • Das Sportfahrwerk wurde entwickelt, um vom Rennsport inspirierte
    Fahrdynamik für den alltäglichen Straßeneinsatz zu
    bieten.
  • Die Materialauswahl erfolgte unter den Vorgaben, bestmögliche
    Haltbarkeit und Korrosionsbeständigkeit auf Serienniveau
    bieten zu können.
    Funktionalität
  • Die Höhenverstellung bietet einen Verstellbereich zwischen
    5-25 mm (5 mm niedriger als Serienstand).
  • Einstellbare Dämpfungstechnik unabhängig für Zug- und
    Druckstufe (16 Einstellungsoptionen der Zugstufendämpfung/
    12 Einstellungsoptionen der Druckstufendämpfung).
  • Hochwertige Dämpfungskomponenten für eine lange Lebensdauer.

Lieferumfang
  • 2 Edelstahl-Komplettfederbeine mit höhenverstellbarem Federteller
    für die Vorderachse
  • 2 Dämpfer für die Hinterachse

So It would follow that the M2 with stock suspension is a wanker?

I read somewhere that BMW will provide recommended setups for well-known race tracks.
Looking forward to seeing those.

So, do we still have to pay for installation if we order the car with this suspension?

Here is the best answer I could find to my own question:
"BMW has stated that M Performance Suspension will come out in April. We really won't know that detail until it is time to order"

So it's based on KW V3's and costs roughly the same. A little bit more expensive than M235i V3's and a bit more cheaper than M3 V3's.

No reason to buy original KW's IMHO.

Exactly. Sounds like the best solution. Basically a KW3 developed by BMW M with full warranties for the price of the normal KW item.

How easily can the suspension settings be tuned?
I hope compression and rebound have some kind of easily accessed knobs or screws.
I would hope that only ride height adjusmtents would require the wheels to come of

Yes, there are knobs for compression and rebound. On the image below you can see on knob at the bottom of the shock and there will be one at the top too. But the one at the bottom of the shock isn't really easy to reach even though it is manageable.

You can change ride height without removing the wheels too if you have access to a lift and turn the wheels right/left depending on which side you are working on.

Are these settings manually adjusted:

Independently adjustable damping technology for rebound and
compression stage (16 settings options Rebound /
12 setting options of compression damping).
High-quality damping components for a long life.

If not it's off to the friendly stealer but could get pricey until the "best" setting gets discovered...

Yes, they are manually adjusted.

BMW will provide a recommended street setting and also a few different track settings (at least for the US). You don't have to go to the dealer to change the settings. You just do it yourself, I don't know where the rear shocks are adjusted but hopefully at the bottom so you don't have to tear down the interior in the trunk.

That is just a pity IMHO

In this app age it would have been logical to make adjustments by iPhone, now that is what I would have called progress!

Agreed, or just have the stealer set to "track" and live with it

Then just get the Bilstein Ride control for the M2. They will be a lot more expensive though and I prefer this setup as I wouldn't use the different modes enough to warrant the price increase. The market for that (because of the price increase) is way smaller than this "manual" setup.

When you have a set height it is quite easy to change the settings with the knob from street mode to track mode when it is necessary. No need to use the same setting on the road and track if you don't live in a country where the roads are kept smooth like a race track.

Jesus. They don't even want to get their hands dirty these days!

If you want to use an app, buy KW DDC or the aforementioned Bilstein IRC.

It's not like you're gonna play with the adjustments every single weekend. Factory settings are fine for most...
