Yes I do.

I love the smothered ride it gives when I run to the pie store

No. Unnecessary expense, complexity, and potential future maintenance hassles in my opinion (I plan to keep the car in the family literally forever). Not needed from a ride standpoint in my opinion.

That's what people used to say about power door locks and windows

I have it on my '15 but truthfully, I don't really use it to its potential. I keep my driving mode in Sport 90% of the time and the ride is fine. I suspect it would still be fine without MSRC.

I love it and use it about every time I drive, which is typically 3X a day. I now consider that dial my mood switch!

I had it on my 2006 C6, when I purchased the C7 couldn't do a test drive so I went without it thinking if I don't like the standard suspension I would trade. Well I have been happy with the ride of the base 2014, heck so happy that I just ordered a base 2017. I considered magnetic ride but at $3,500 (GM bundled additional unwanted options to the suspension system) decided it wasn't worth the price. Cherry pie for me!

I didn't order it because I know I'd be in the "soft" mode 99.9% of the time. So I got the base suspension but added Z51 sway bars for ~$340.

Don't have it on my '16 Z51. I think it handles pretty well without it
