Msport actual difference ?

[chopper]

Hi All, sorry if this sounds stupid.... but what are the actual differences between an 2.3sdrive and a 2.3 sdrive Msport, and also the pure white design for Msport package rather than just the normal pure white design ?
it's really difficult to tell from the brochure..

is there a real difference when driving / handling etc ?
is the throttle response different from a standard car ?

as much advice and detail possible would be great...

many thanks

You could get stoned for asking that in here, you need the forum 'New Z4 specific' Having said that this is an 'M specific' question, just not M model specific

Without knowing I would assume same power, maybe lowered suspension, some nicer trim, bigger wheels etc. Someone more knowledgable will answer I'm sure

I'm not very knowledgeable so will let someone else answer, but yes same power and throttle response. Think the default suspension might be a bit firmer, and slightly upgraded spec (like sports seats), but more costly.

The Design White interior will be the same, although because sports seats and leather are standard on the M Sport then it will cost less than half of what it does on the standard 23i. It will look exactly the same.

Suspension is lower and firmer. So I suppose it would drive a little better, not driven one.

The test drive I had was a standard sDrive30i auto with standard suspension. The car I have now is sDrive23i M Sport. I can tell you the M Sport suspension is stiffer, so handling is slightly better. Both standard and M Sport have same throttle response.

m sport over the standard = front and rear bumpers with m sport design making the car more aggressive looking - also 10mm lower with stiffer suspension in standard ride, but also having the standard/sport/sport+ control. Also m sport steering wheel/gear lever/door sills/sports seats/interior trim with carbon. Having driven both, for me the m sport was the only option as i prefer the look and handling.
