OEM Sport Suspension Option Clubman?

Folks
I am considering ordering the Sport Suspension Option on my build of a 2012 JCW Clubman, which is different from the JCW Suspension upgrade. What is exactly included in the Clubman package for the $500?

The dealer told me the sway bar is 19mm, and that's about all the concrete info they had. Does anyone know what else you get for the money?

I will be doing a lot of highway driving with a race course track day once or twice a year.

So is there something better I can do to the car in the aftermarket world for similar money? I know I could do coil overs, sway bar and springs but not for $500.

Thanks in advance for your thoughts.

Springs, shocks / struts (dampers), and sway bars are different than the OEM standard.

Many, including myself will talk to you skip it and grab aftermarket parts that are far superior to the OEM sport suspension option.
