Any NW People with Dynamic Handling Package?

Cross post from the ordering forum -- BMW is buying our F30 back, so we are reordering. I am on the fence about ordering the dynamic handling package. Does anybody have it that would let me drive it a few blocks on our terrible streets? I'm leaning toward the sport line this time but am afraid that the ride will be harsh on potholes and speed bumps.

I am getting it in my F31 but won't be here for another month... And I am in Seattle.

I just took delivery last week of a 2014 335i with sport suspension. I was able to find a coupe at the dealer with DHP. I noticed a difference between the two, but the sport suspension was good enough for me. In the interest of simplicity, I went that route.

Let me know how you like yours!

Sorry I missed this. Would've let you drive mine. I have an M Sport with DHP and i like the ability to choose Comfort mode if the road is a little choppy. 90% of the time, however, i drive in Sport Mode as I enjoy the engine's responsiveness much more so than in the Comfort/default non-sport mode. Almost never use Eco mode but would consider it on a long road trip.

Thanks for the reply. Kuni had a 4 series with DHP that I took for a spin. DHP seems like a nice feature. But for me, the added complexity didn't justify adding it. I primarily use my car for commuting to Beaverton on pretty smooth roads. Hey, I recognize your street from your pics just off Powell in SE. I used to be in that area all the time when I was attending Reed college.

Lol. Yeah our townhouse is pretty distinct and the Starbucks can get pretty busy! Lot of traffic through here. You should post a few pics of your car. Would love to see it.

Just order mine with it. The CA at BMW of Seattle told me that only 20 out of 200 335i vehicles on showroom floors have the package. Oddly enough, most of those are in Colorado.

I thought you can choose between econ and sport mode without having the DHP????

Correct, there is no exclusive dependency.
