I am not a fan of adaptive drive. The ride is too hard all the time.

The parts catalog for the x6 lists only 2 shocks AD and non-AD. So the AD is the sport pack shock. Yes it does keep the car flat. No it is not more comfortable under an circumstances than a non AD car. I think people forget that these are BMWs. They don't turn into cadillacs without one option.... The base suspension is perfect on an X6. Now, what does bother me is that you can't get active steering without AD.

Our x has AD now and its too harsh for a family car. Our new X6 was ordered without it.

Hope this helps.
