What else can they do? Can they access other car features? Eg can I ask them to adjust climate control? Can I ask them to order me things online? :)

  Not sure about climate control, they do have access to all information in the computer (they can tell you which petrol station you can reach given your current fuel level for example), but they can totally order things for you, you can say "please make a reservation at restaurant X for 7:45 for two people, and have flowers delivered to this address by tomorrow". They will call you back with a price and if you confirm then BMW just sends you an invoice for it.

While it is true that probably most buyers of new BMW's and Mercedes can afford it, I don't think it is a service most customers will be using, those with the real money surely already have a secretary/personal assistant for these chores.

      The two companies you mentioned have one primary marketing tactic in the US/UK - make midlevel people feel rich.
