Well if it's in the budget, Ridetech Level 2 or JRZ RS Two Touring.

Viking is set to come out with a coilover set that [MENTION=9985]BMR Tech[/MENTION] is testing right now, as well.
If I could ride in a Mustang that had those installed, that would be great. Would hate to spend the money without experiencing a test drive first. I've never ridden in a bagged car before, so I'd love to feel what the Ridetech air suspension would be like as well.

What tires are you running?
Still on the original Pirellis. I know tires would help some, but not enough to give me the ride I'm looking for.

Agreed, magnetic will probably be exactly what the OP is looking for.

@OP I have the same setup. will likely add the steeda rear shock mounts which help with bounce apparently. I do have mine a lot stiffer. Like half turn off full stiff. I also feel like a different spring may make the shocks work better. I need to research here what Koni yellows and Linear springs are like.
Let me know if the rear shock mounts make a significant difference. In my experience, the bounce was almost completely gone when I switched to the Koni yellows. Let me know if you come up with a different spring that works better with the them.

I might try to take a drive in a Caddy or 'Vette with the MagnaRides and see what they're like.

Um, trade in Mustang on a 6 Series BMW that rides just like a BMW?

OP ever drove a mustang or GM car with magride?

Go take a magride equipped GT350 or Corvette if you like it wait it out and buy a 2018 mustang.

The GT will have the magride as an option and the 10 speed auto will be awesome too! Plus the gen3 coyote with DI a d port injection.

Want a BMW on Mustang for far less money?

The 2018 will be here soon.

The mounts make a pretty pronounced difference. They eliminated the bounce in my car and made the rear quite a bit more supple, thanks to the spherical bearing that allows for smooth shock articulation.
