The suspension is more composed, absorbs bumps better, has less travel over undulations, and corners better. Directional stability is also better. Yes, it could corner flatter, and the tires could have more grip, but it's just a better car than the MY2014. The 330i feels very similar to the pre-LCI 704 suspension. The 330i msport I drove did corner flatter, but I felt the ride was too jittery and prefer the ride/handling balance of the sportline suspension.
I'm a little torn between the B46 engine and the N26. The lag when accelerating from a slow roll is quite noticeable in the B46. Never noticed this in the N26. I also preferred the sound of the N26.
When I test drove a 428i I could tell immediately that it was a better handling car than the F30. But the wider exterior combined with the tighter interior, lower visibility, frameless windows, and higher price made it a nogo for me.

There is ZERO difference between the "Sport" and "M-Sport" static suspension; they are the same (unless the later had the adaptive setup). |
False, the msport has a shorter spring |
Sport and M-Sport have the same ride height. Why do you think it would have shorter springs?
