1. Does not wake up in the mode it was shut in
2. No option to decouple throttle from suspension. I always want sharper throttle in this car, but I don't always want the firmer state of the adaptive.

It feels fine (albeit weak up top relative to the bottom end) if I'm not on my commute. It's the specific sort of driving that I do every day that just doesn't work. I took it out of the city today, and as in it's native suburban territory, it was great on the highway, and great in more typical city street driving (NY and FL Avenues).

Keep in mind that for the specific driving that I'm referring to, the N55 gets 11-13mpg in gentle driving.

If you don't have adaptive suspension, that button only does throttle (and maybe steering weight) so the "problem" goes away.

I like to firm up the dampers, but have no use for less linear throttle settings. It seems to exacerbate the jumpy throttle tip-in issue for me.

Wrong color and NAV, but a manual 2011 ZCP with not too many miles and (I think) slicktop.

Seems cheap, maybe a scam?
