E92... can carry 4 people?

I have the M Sport Suspension package on my car. I may have to drive a total of 4 people in the car tomorrow, kind of worried about the weight. Is it ok to do this? 3 guys 1 girl, guys are all at least 70-90kg...

What do you mean you're worried about the weight? Even a 320i sedan can carry 5 people. Or you mean the ride height? It shouldn't be a problem with the oem sport suspension, unless you got crazy "I-will-eat-you-alive" style front bumper or front lip, and going to the steepest parking lot in HK, you should be fine. An E92 got 4 seat and 4 seat belts, even with sport oem suspension I don't see why there is any problem of riding it full house.

This is really a funny and weird question that a 5-seats should worry about to carry 4 persons on the road, wahkakaka ~~

By the way, Who decides if an Ex can take 5,4 or x people? HK gov or the car manufacturer?
I know for example on an E93, ony 2 can fit in the rear, du to the middle is taken by a plastic cu holder case and a small storage pocket.
Is it the same on an E92? obviously not on an E90

The same on the E92 whereby, we only can fit two on the rear seat exactly like your E93!! I tend to think that, it is the car manufacturer to declare their vehicles on how many ppl they can fit when it first registered in HK or even import to HK.....
