When buying the F10, I drove the 335i xDrive and was unimpressed with its suspension (especially relative to my old E92). I recently drove a C450 and found it rather well sorted, if a tad slower than I recall of my E92 but somehow can't get behind the idea of a Mercedes. I haven't had the opportunity to test drive a 340i yet, but I'm hoping someone here has a sense of the relative handling of the 340i xDrive with DHP to, say, an E92 non-xDrive Sport Package

Any thoughts?

Thanks!
i have 340xi with 704 M adaptive suspension. non THP. I have say, i dont like the summer Bridgestone run-flats, those run-flats make the ride harh in comfort and more road noise. make sure you test the car with proper MPSS tires. But man the 340i pulls hard, it really gets going at 3k+ rpms. i am still in my breaking in period. only default THP comes with MPSS tires
