Has anyone driven both the 330i sport and 330i M Sport?
I was hoping to know if anyone had driven both. The F30 I am fairly certain the m-sport and sport both had the same suspension. (I had an m-sport f30 and was mostly ok with how sporty that was).
I know the new one the m-sport is 10mm lower or something, does anyone know how much of a difference this makes ride / driving wise? Is the non sport still sporty (maybe i'm getting old, but the M sport look on a non M car is something I'm not as big a fan of these days, plus more color options on sport line which I kind of like better)? |

In Europe, M sport package includes exterior bumpers, interior M sport trim and M sport suspension.
Sport Line comes with normal suspension but you can add M sport suspension for extra stiffness. I drove M sport with 19 inch and was comfortable enough. I prefer though the ride on the stiffer side |

F3x generation the suspension was the same, so m-sport ended up being just a lot of cosmetic stuff, and the steering wheel.... this time well harder to know what the driving difference is. |

I test drove three models:
I did not get a chance to drive one with the 18" wheels w/ non-RFT, unfortunately. My time in all three was limited, but in spirited driving I did notice more body roll in corners with the Sport Line than with the M-Sport. My perception (not sure this was objectively true) was that there seemed to be slightly less with the Sport Line and 19" wheels. It is a close call, IMO. The ride of the M-Sport did not seem overly harsh. I would also say that the Sport Line also handled well. Ultimately it comes down to your priorities given how and where you drive the car. |

depends on your local roads. if they are good, the 19's are fine, if not go with the 18's for more compliance and more reliability.
