It's funny how everyone has different likes on suspension. I actually love the initial turn in feel the car gives you - it's sharp and the roll is beautifully judged. It feels like another car I used to own - an Alpina B3 - and it's spot on for UK roads. Rebound for me feels soft - I'd prefer that was sharper but I guess l it would also make the car edgier (which I'd prefer) but would not perhaps be to the cars target market.
