Question suspension feel amongst C32, C320sport, S4?

I'm considering ordering a C32 but the dealer doesn't have any sitting around to test drive. I'm driving a 2000 A4 with sport pkg which feels the same as an S4. I'm able to test drive a C320 Sport but not a C32. So far, I've test driven a regular C320. If you've got experience with any of these, please tell me how their suspension feel compares with the C32..thanks!

I'm concerned the C32 would be jarring over city bumps like my A4 is. I'm guessing even if the C32 was as stiff as the A4 that it would still feel better due to its longer wheelbase. Do you agree?

The C32 is fine over city bumps. I dropped mine and it still holds in F#$%ed up Chicago roads. Just look out if you get bigger rims, if the streets are that bad, just get 18"s.
