Well, I wish BMW did the same. Wanted to go for the new BMW M2. But now instead of a well-integrated speedometer & central display they shaved it off of the dash and put in place this monstrosity of a wide screen. It's just bolted on with no sense of cohesion.
And with that the buttons for climate control are gone.
Want to turn on heated seats? Touch the screen.
Change fan speed? Touch the screen.
All things that I can do blindly (eyes on the road, not eyes closed, but you get it), which now require looking AND finesse, because if I mis press who knows where the GPS will send me next...
- ilikehurdles 4y agoIt's such a bummer because I think the last 2-3 generations of BMW's iDrive system have been absolute rockstars among autos. Sad to see them go backwards with iDrive 8 where you have to navigate nested menus to toggle heated seat controls.
