Would you buy a 50i now?

Nope, I’m waiting for M50i. If it doesn’t materialize for MY 2020 then I may change my tune...

there is no M50i yet only a M50d which we don't get here. Did you mean a regular 50i? There wasn't and old M50i/d before either

I went for the M50d and it wasn't too harsh at all, although I'm comparing it to my current F80 M3 Comp, current FJ Cruiser with modded tuff dog suspension, previous Golf R and the harshest of all rides my old Civic Type R. We took it for a 2 day test drive and it was smooth in comfort and firm yet still comfortable in sport. Very impressed with the handling and performance, the torque is amazing on the highway!

I appreciate the input, I think the gas version ie NA market M50i still ride differently but we will see
