Stock power is obviously enough too, but the lower ride height and suspension tuning are perfection. I haven't driven a standard car hard so I can't compare, but whatever BMW did to edit the differential programming works wonders. The diff is magic. This can, when driven hard, shrink the car in an unbelievable way, and feels just like a big E90.

My plan is to drive and enjoy it just as BMW designed and intended it to be and maintain it to the best of my ability.
Well said.

Agreed. My last F10 was a 535i on H&R springs and I swear my competition is lower. Like he said, it needs nothing. I've had her on the Dragon twice last week and she handles great for her weight. She definitely shrank as I drove her aggressively. So happy. My 2015 Comp was 32k but she has more miles than most people like. But she's in great shape and seeing how many are on CarGurus with over 100k gives me confidence. These are well built cars.

Whatever they ^^^ said CP is worth it.

However, it is also important to know what you are coming from. I went from a E92 CP to an F10 M5 w/ CP. One of my former colleagues went from a E39 M5 to a non-CP F10 M5. When he drove mine he could barely tell the difference.

All I am saying is yes, CP is worth it, else BMW will not charge extra $$ for it. However, what you transfer from will be material in you knowing the difference between the two. If you see a non-CP which meets what you need I will suggest going for it.
