Congrats--you'll love it! I keep my suspension setting in sport mode 2, and the handling is excellent. I've driven Porsches since 1989, and while a 4,200 lb car can't handle like a Carrera, the E55 handles great. I also keep the transmission in sport mode (also use the manual mode occasionally, but not too often), and the shifts are very crisp.

I used the car raising function the other day before going up a steep driveway--works great, and the kids thought it was cool feeling the car rise!
