As some might have noticed, Koni FSD shocks are being discontinued which for me was sad news because I loved them on my old ZHP.

I got it touch with Koni in the Netherlands and exchanged few emails on this topic as I was checking if FSD shocks were still available for E39 M5.
I have no plans of changing struts on my M5 soon but I was checking for my buddy who's shopping around and I wanted to know what's out there as FSD's would be my first pick.

Good news is that Koni confirmed they will be introducing the successor of FSD, i.e. Special Active for the E46 models!
They said more information will be available on their website beginning of next week.

Sadly, E39 540i/M5 won't be seeing this new line of shocks due to low demand. They would need a firm order of at least 50 sets to produce them for E39 V8's which I think will be hard to achieve with the M5 crowd.

Other than this promo video, I couldn't find additional info on Special Active for now but stay tuned.
