Incredibly frustrating as its a major issue for what could otherwise be a fantastic car.

I can't agree, for me BMW's worst period for ride quality was the M sport e9* cars with rubber band RFT on them, truly awful bone hard ride so bad that cracked wheels became a feature of that generation, the M version was better with more tyre side wall and no RFT the ride has been getting better through the F8* chassis and on to the G chassis.
I have the new X3M and again the ride is much better than my 2007 Z4C on RFT or any of my previous 5 M cars, I think people confuse a stiff chassis with a harsh ride for me they are different, the cars are getting stiffer but the damping and tyres are better.
