If you plan on *staying* stock on your suspension, maybe consider it.
But personally, don't burn too much energy on the adaptive suspension option.
I've got it on my 2015 435i paired with the Dinan Shockware (which basically moves sport into comfort and then bumps sport REALLY stiff.)
I caveat stock because I've tried using springs with the adaptive suspension (factory) as well as the Dinan Shockware.
The car just doesn't recover or respond as well even with a mild drop of .8". Think wheels hitting the fender insides at 80+mph.
It's great/fine on paved roads... like a track... with no road changes, or these things _– (BAM!) or fast rollies.
But harsh pavement, uneven roads, freeway undulations... it's useless.
And that's where I drive 99% of the time.
After a year, I'm back at the stock height and I'd daresay the car handles better now and the Dinan shockware (sport) eliminates the bobs and even under HARD 80+mph road changes, where it would bottom out, there's a nice resistance.
That all being said, if I could do it again, it's skip the adaptive and go with a good set of springs and adjustable shocks / coil-overs with adjustable shocks. You can lower if you want and then adjust the shocks according, which is what the adaptive just can't do.
