22 M5C Sport Braking

So I just picked up a M5C and noticed that it does not have the option to change the brakes to sport from comfort. In the marketing material for the LCI they show it in the M setup but I don't see it. Anyone know?

Good question, I wondered that too, it's on the X6M, why not the M5?

They removed the setting in the LCI, no longer adjustable because most found it didn't do anything in terms of actually improving braking performance. (Testing shows this to be the case too, it just changed pedal feel)

Not an option on the M5. Ive driven the M3 Comp that has this, and its not very effective. Just tick the CCB option, job done, outstanding performance, not like the brake adjustment.

I have a 19 Comp and don't see this setting anywhere. Sounds like a gimmick.

I agree with above, I'm just going to check the CCB option on my next one. I mean, the steel sport brakes are totally fine, but more stopping power would be nice, and honestly worth it just to get rid of the squeaking.

I would inquire with the dealer, I suspect it's a regional thing, none of the ones I've seen in the USA had that option, but reviewers in Europe did show it.
