Not everyone has a monthly payment (my M4 is paid for) so that is not necessarily an argument for everyone. I read many reviews that said that the passive suspension was great and that the adaptive was not really necessary. I got the passive. Had nothing to do with the money. I am happy with the passive. Would the adaptive have been better? I don't know - I don't have it.
