Is the suspension any different

The M550i got standard the adaptive M-Suspension which is lower than the normal EDC

and on the G series, X drive sport model cars get the same suspensions as RWD which means lower

There will be a RWD version of this, right?

That's great news that the M-Sport Suspension is adaptive. I assume it still uses the 704 steel springs but with variable dampeners. The early HEA order guides indicated that ordering ZMP with M Suspension and 223 (Dynamic dampener control) would remove 704. It was an either-or option. Can you confirm?

Any idea what other drive train options might do to the ride height? For example, will ordering ZDH remove the 704 springs? What about changes, if any, to the suspension if (2VH) Integral Active Steering is ordered?

The adaptive M-Suspension is definitively standard. As option you got the adaptive M-Suspension professional.

The professional suspension is, among other things, more sportily tuned.
But I do not know exactly the differences.

No one does

This car is probably the xdrive M5. I don't think there will be an xdrive version of M5. Which is amazing news.

This is no M5.

From the M5 section.:
According to bimmertoday the M5 will be a 4x2. This means that you can switch between four-wheel drive and rear-wheel drive at the push of a button.

Is that Aluminum Hex Trim?

So pricing is between what I expected and what you mentioned... $72,100 plus $995 Destination and Handling

The price is a large part in why many markets wont get it.
