Speed of 60-70 you sincerely feel that you will fly....down to 50ish and it is not as pronounced....I will gladly *****and I mean gladly *****repeat this experiment for anyone at BMW. It should happen. They need to understand how freaking insane this little body bounce issue is. I agree also on the pothole thing...but I think that is an RFT issue more than a chassis/susp. thing.

My thought...I need to contact my dealer. I have a fairly high profile them and this car....they replaced the head recently-- I am calling them and by god we will make this issue known. It is stupid and unacceptable.

Rant.....over for the moment.

Its not bout driving around a dip or anything.

If you're cruising 80~90 and you decide to change lanes and go thru the little cracks or uneven pavements the car tends to "skid over it" with a airborne feeling. It isnt rough or anything its more like too soft with no grip?

Kinda scary when it happens.
