Also, not a fan of the temperature dial just below the center air vents. Seems redundant to have the ability to explicitly set the temperature of my A/C and then need to slide the dial to blue. Since we're talking about the A/C unit, I wish there was a quick way to set the dual climate to the same setting as driver. I totally admit that I am OCD, but seeing 60 on the driver side and 65 on the passenger (without someone in the passenger seat) drives me crazy. |

I haven't got my car yet so when you guys say it can be coded to do all these certain things does that mean you can program them yourself or is this something you have to pay the service dept to set up???

You don't have to do anything with it really. It's like a "blend" setting. For example, you may want greater heat on you or your passengers feet, but you don't want hot air on your face, but still want some air flow. With the blend control you can use it so that the dash vents are cooler than what's blowing on your feet. |

C'mon guys you're slipping - I'm surprised no-one has mentioned the most useless feature of all....
The badge on the boot lid that informs the driver behind you (who probably couldn't care less or more likely doesn't understand BMW's odd numbering system) what size engine you've got? Is this going to be another contentious one?

the auto folding mirrors are just too cool, I don't see how you can't like them and if you don't then just leave them open all the time like a normal car.

If its winter and you're in your 500oz Down North Face Parka and after a few minutes drive the heat is making your feet and legs toasty warm but you need some fresh air on your face and chest you just twist that dial and it's done. No buttons, no iDrive fumbling, just turn the wheel. BJ |

Do the US spec F30's get bigger cup holders to fit the 1/2 gallon Super size drinks from McDonalds ? or do you have to use the door holder for them?

Honestly I think the front bumper side cameras are pointless and useless. You cant judge anything with them, you cant tell if youre gonna smack into a curb it almost makes me crosseyed when I try to use it.
The only think Ive ever done is turn them on at a red light to check out a pair of rims on a car next to me. Pointless. However, Rear backup camera and overhead view are fantastic to have. Use it everyday.

I've only had my car for a few hours, but the "Oh shit!" grab handle above the driver is useless. I'll keep both hands on the wheel in those cases where the passenger is compelled to hold on.

These handles are for the elderly bmw drivers who can't otherwise get in and out of the car. ^^

extended black pannel display. I have it as part of professional nav but it as an option on its own it costs £250! All it does is make the instant MPG a digital guage!
