The press release is referring to the standard X line for 2020 as the
M-Sport doesn't exist in that context. The M-Sport and M50i are the same car less the 67hp increase and one wheel option.
I think overall it's very similar on the outside with the exception of the factory extended shawdowline and M badging. The ride is very different though, I do not and did not have DHP. My previous X5 felt bouncy at times, the new has a more confident / firm feel.
Did you get the air suspension?
Negative. I have no idea why I did not bother to at least get air. It all happened pretty quick and my priority was to get the options that were not available for the first build, B&W and alcantara.

When I was running through my checklist, I think someone made a post about the air suspension that left me with some questions so I decided to leave it off.
