But we were surprised that it was quite acceptable.  Its certainly not a comfy cruiser (e.g camry), but not a bone shaker as well.  More sporty than comfy if you ask me.  Folks who prefer luxury comfort rides will likely complain about the comfort, but I am used to it <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />.  The prefacelift E46 sports suspension and 18" wheel tyre combo is softer and rolls more, and hence a bit more cushy and comfy.</blockquote>
