This quote is not encouraging for a whole variety of reasons:

"In Sport, the 435i is extremely firm and tends to jiggle over short, sharp bumps while it wallows too much in Comfort. Sport might work well on a track, but as one of the BMW chassis engineers told me, it's a marketing setting: intentionally stiff to remind people that they're in the Sport mode they paid for."

The overall tone of the article was positive, and they seem to have made progress in many of the areas where people have been critical of the F30, namely the steering and suspension. Looking forward to more reviews.
