1) I like it

2) Price seems a bit crack pipe

3) Why did BMW make the seat backs the same as the interior color? Mine is gray and I'm always worried bikes / tires / crap is going stain it. Tan is even worse!

4) He changed the subframe bushings? Huh

Yes. The M3 subframe bushings are very, very different from the standard ones and dramatically increase NVH.

Mike's car went from plush with the PSS10s to stiff after that change. Obviously, a stock suspension responds better to them, but with the PSS10s, he's thinking about going back to stock.

This guy is bragging about them as if the car wallows around on the stock ones.

They are a LOT stiffer. They definitely impact the car's handling.

I'd take his E46 M3 wagon. This one, not so much
