Having said that, your second point is very valid. DCC allows the driver to adjust the damper flow valve which in turn changes the damping properties, so you get lots of suspension options to set the car up how you want depending on your driving conditions. If you do lots of miles and/or want/need comfort, the DCC really is a great option. The difference between Comfort and Sport modes on mine is remarkable, especially on the terrible London roads, so I can just sit back and relax without having to worry about being juddered around by lumps, bumps, potholes etc.
This^^^. I would have gone without some of my other options just to have DCC if money had been really tight.
Confess that mine remains in comfort, but on the odd occasions I change to normal or sport out of curiosity, I switch back pretty quickly unless the road surface is snooker table smooth. It just feels too uncomfortable for me, though in truth it's probably much better than things like XR3's, etc. that I drove in the 80's.
