Thanks. I actually got the Active Cruise control for free we discovered today. I didn't order it but I have the feature. Not going to complain. lol

Damm, you burst my bubble thinking I got something for free. lol. The techs were trying to figure what the button on the left side between the blind spot and lane departure buttons were.

This car is so new to them they said they haven't had all the training yet and guessed that it was the Active Cruise.

It's the Early Collision Warning button.

Thanks for the clarification

Congrats on a sharp looking F30 !!

How do you like the Variable Sport steering ? How does it compare to the standard steering in terms of road feel and accuracy ?

dmontic71 · 06-28-2012, 07:59 PM

Awesome ride!
