I’ve never had traction or driveability issues with my ‘16. If you want the changes included in the Comp package then you need to buy a Comp car. If you want a car that feels fundamentally different then buy a CS. CS is vastly superior to a Comp or base model.
This is incorrect. Sway bars are different on Competition cars as well. https://f80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh...16&postcount=7

I drove both and couldn’t tell the difference as both were so bad in Irish rain! But great fun!

The only real difference I’ve noticed is when I changed 20 666 wheels to 19/20 763 staggered.

Extra sidewall on fronts certainly helps around town etc.
Reading > you

When did "the standard car received a raft of (unannounced) chassis tweaks" become all Comp improvements made it to the non-Comp as well?
