Driving experience with Non-EDC?
Now that folks are getting experience behind the wheel. Has anyone driven a car without EDC? There was a review of the 4-door which blasted it as a "base suspension." There was something about it being rather ?bouncy?
My car is being assembled as we speak. In the event the non-EDC is crap, I would like to change it. Then again, I am sure there will be some aftermarket mods to correct any deficiencies? Thoughts? Thanks! |

You can tune your non-EDC suspension however you like if you feel the need after you drive it around for some time. The real questions are:
1. Do you want the option of having active suspension? (EDC has 1 passive and 2 active modes) 2. Do you want the option of being able to adjust damper settings on the go? If you say both to no, then don't get EDC. |

BMW will not deliver a poor suspension setup on a M car; they are very good at suspension design. However, personal preferences differ. So, when you get your non-EDC car, if you decide you want something different, it won't be a problem tuning it to whatever it is that you want given you are saying no and no to the above.

I m not going to order the edc.
As i was told, its just a good choise if you want a comfortable car ( and i dont mind comfort very much). Otherwise, if you īd like to change your suspension etc after sales, you may buy some components for your undercarriage, they are not pretty expansiv. |

Another fear I had was with EDC on most of the cars, there wouldn't be products created for the M. Hopefully items fitting the 335 would also work with this car?

I dont think so.
M changed most components on the car ( about 94% ?). Therefor it ll be very difficult to use 335 parts on your m3. but dont mind that, i guess there ll be a sufficient supply of components for the m3. |
