Sure, it's called an aftermarket suspension. Or presumably the M Performance suspension they're going to offer. I don't know the exact % of uptake on those but it's pretty small, especially if you...

Still waiting? :dunno:

And nobody said DHP made the car an M3 clone. If you want an M3 spend the $60k+ and get an M3, that's what it's there for.
