has the 09 xi sport package tightened the suspension?
I test drove the 08 I and XI sport packages, and the XI was noticeably sloppier.
But I bought an 09 XI, and I was thinking of getting coilovers, but something didn't feel right. The car just isn't rolling as much as I remember from the 08 test drive, and it's actually really flat cornering. Ride height is still tall, but it seems more planted than I remember... Am I just imagining it? Or did they actually touch up the XI sports package for 09? -scheherazade |

Well, I did read in BMW's ad that they widened the track with the 09s therefore they should corner better.

It was an ad in a magazine, but I'm sure they should post the specs somewhere.

(no mention of the coupe) edit : Makes me wonder about suspension fitment. Would like to see verification of what suspension upgrades mount to the 09's. -scheherazade |
