Also the Variable sports steering vs the regular steering in the sports line. Also is it true that when you order the Tech Packedge it gives you a larger Nav screen 8.8 exact. Lastly the Rims what does mixed tires mean i Want the 19 inch but it says something about mixed tires i don't know what that means.

  1. Suspension - No one knows at this point
  2. Variable steering means that the front wheels turn at a higher rate the further the steering wheel is turned. So, when you are navigating a parking lot you don;t have to turn the wheel as much.
  3. With the Tech package you get a larger screen - 8.8" vs. 6.5". But note you only get Nav with the Tech Pkg. Without it, you get a 6.5" inch iDrive screen and no GPS Nav.
  4. Standard wheels are 18" with 225-45 tires all around. The 19" option has 225/40 fronts and 255-35 rears (wider tires in the rear)

I don't know whether variable sport steering is worth getting.

I would say read the reviews and see what folks say who have experienced it.

My guess is it may be a little odd at first but you will get used to it over time. At the same time, I do not think it's something I would feel I was missing by not getting it.
