I have already read the other threads concerning the KW vs M perf but it got diluted with comparisons with the Clubsports.
On the V2 you can adjust height/rebound. On the V3 and MPS you can adjust height/rebound/compression. As far as BMW using more "conservative" specs, as a previous poster mentioned it only matters if you plan on setting it to the extremes such as max low for "stance". The V3 may or may not be able to go stiffer/softer but I personally haven't seen any info to verify this. Even if it did, why upgrade the suspension to go softer and stiffer doesn't always equate to better handling. And the end of the day it's a personal decision.
