I tested an m550i, an M5 and and M5 comp. True Goldilocks situation for me. For me, the m550i was too soft and the M5 comp was too harsh. I wanted to like the Comp - but it rode very similarly to my AMG. If I hadn’t driven my AMG for the last 2 years, I’d probably have ordered the Comp, but given what I’m going for - the “regular” M5 was perfect for me. I’m really glad they have the option!
lol at that comment. I guess it really does depend on which city you live in. I couldn't agree more, the comp would be too harsh on Houston streets. I live inside the loop where Metro buses really tear up the right lanes. I've had my share of stiff riding cars, glad the M5 is pretty soft on comfort mode.
