Yes it can be sometimes but I'm the only one in it most of the time so it doesn't bother me. I tend to switch to comfort when passengers in it. I had SS+ on my B7 which I remember a lot of people hated but it was never too firm.

I have SS+ and love it. Would you say that DRC on dynamic is something equivalent to a B7 with SS+?

Difficult one to judge since it has been a while since I had the B7. SS+ was lower springs and different ARBs and there were a lot of issues with DRC in the early days on that model. The system has moved on a great deal since then but it dose feel very similar when you push hard into a corner and there aren't the options for the lower suspension unless you go aftermarket. Suspension is pretty subjective (unless you are a passenger!).
