I did get a chance to test out a 340i which did not have the regular M sport suspension and I found it fairly compliant and comfortable enough and certainly more so than the M2 that I drive daily. It had the run flat tires and I'm definitely looking to get the Cooling and High Performance Tire Package on the vehicle I spec out so that may also change the ride slightly.
Unfortunately, I don't think I've ever driven a car with an adaptive suspension, so not sure I had an idea on how it feels on the road. Tried to find a car in the area that I could test drive that had adaptive, but they seem to be hard to come by.
Any comments are appreciated.

I replaced my OG M2 with a M340ix (with Adaptive Suspension) last year. In comfort mode the suspension feels very 'comfortable' and more like a luxury cruiser. In Sport mode is when this car really shines, slightly stiff but very compliant. I'd highly recommend the Adaptive suspension option as it transforms the ride quality which essentially is one of the attributes which gives the car a dual personality.
