    Purchase new Q7 with our without Adaptive Air Suspension?

    Placed order for a 2018 Q7 and I may have only have 2 days to change add the order.

    Looking for opinions on ride quality, handling, enjoyment of driving etc and not so much on the cost for adding it.

    I think most will say that the steel springs are alright in general and that the air suspension thrives on very bumpy roads.

    I don't have adaptive. I wish I had it just cause I like checking boxes. It's smoother than anything else I drive though.

    I don't have it and love the way car is. Yes you can lower the car with the factory air but on the older cars they did have problems over time. Just waiting for Some one to come out with coils

    I did like lowering our LR4. Easy to load and I didn't slide across the seat as much getting out.

    100% add it. Drives like a dream and having the ability to raise or lower at a moments notice is clutch.

    Just found out that it's too late for me to add it. Bummer.

    Still pretty good on steel suspension though right?

    Yes it is. Read some of the reviews. Should be pretty unbiased.

    It was a definite addition for my husband. He needs the smoothest riding vehicle and there are so many bumpy roads in our area. Fixed pot holes. We live in an area with an overabundance of warehouses so the truck traffic is killing the roads.
