I've had a Polestar 2 dual-motor (without Performance Package) for 2 months now and I love it. It's definitely firm, but not bouncy like the Mach-E was.
I do miss wireless CarPlay - that was a serious miss by Polestar.
I sold mine to Carvana after 2 months. The ride was untenably bad, even with the MagnaRide shocks. It bobs around like a drunk penguin.
Pretty bummed because the rest of the car was very good and the Grabber Blue paint was amazeballs.
Waiting on a Polestar 2 now (since waiting for cars is...
LOL. Nope.
It won't matter because the market will have moved to almost entirely EVs by then. That die got cast already - the auto OEM roadmaps are all EV at this point and have been for years.
Instead of making the Mach-E look more like a Mustang, Ford is making the Mustang look more like a Mach-E. 👍

I did exactly the same - Carvana picked up my GTPE last Thu and I've been driving my wife's XC60 T8.
Night and day.
And for all the people who are saying "it's a sports car, you should expect it to be harsh" - umm, no. It's not that the suspension is stiff - it's that it's under-damped.
The...
My 2 month old GTPE is for sale (likely being picked up by Carvana this week) and I have my name on an incoming EQE 500 that's got a 10/18 build date.
The GTPE is going because I can't take the suspension on my commute and Mercedes, well, knows how to do suspension calibration.
Our XC60 T8 hybrid suspension is INCREDIBLE. I sure wish the Ford execs had driven it before they signed off on the awful GTPE suspension calibration. I'd probably not be selling my 2 month old GTPE if they had.

I'm guessing that it's gonna cost a lot more that $160 to get something to have sex with you.
This is literally the most shocking thing I've read in this forum to date.
If someone told me that I had to choose "the least-likely person on this forum to understand people," guess who I'd pick?
So the front and rear bars do not have to be set to the same stiffness. Stiffening the rear more will reduce understeer ("soften the end that isn't working" is the suspension setup rule of thumb).
Modern cars have a lot of understeer dialed in at the factory to prevent lawsuits. The fact that...
