Congratulations to you too! I love the frozen color. I like that you can see hues of purple in the right light and the pronunciation of the curves and lines with the satin paint. How are you liking it?
She feels as "big" as my previous '21 M4 but snappier, if that makes sense. I absolutely love it. |

I knew going in that the climate control stuff was on the screen, so it was going to take some getting used to.
But in the last 8.5 years of owning my F30 340i, the thing related to the A/C that I used the most (by FAR) is this wheel with the red & blue. 80-90% of the time, adjusting just this wheel was enough to not have to touch anything else for my liking. And it was super quick & easy. I wish it still had that wheel. Now, I actually have to touch the screen to adjust the temperature up and down each time since we have large temp swings, and keeping it the same doesn't usually work even on different trips in the car on the same day. The sacrifices I have to make... LOL I'm sure it's not a big deal to many, but still sucks to be missing that wheel after having it before. Last edited by xtougher; 03-21-2024 at 05:02 PM..

But yeah, the Carplay is kinda nice. It took a few trips using Carplay to realize I can have different "arrangement"s instead of just having Waze up filling the entire screen. |

Watch some videos on carplay and id8. I work in mobile so I know carplay and android auto exceptionally well, still learning id8.
Agree though, digital or not the rotary style temp would be nice. At least they left us the volume knob. |

The volume knob is a no brainer...hitting a screen or something for volume would be pretty user-UNfriendly. |

Good to know! I am definitely thinking it's a minor thing in the grand scheme of things, but still...just whining. |

Another thing I now notice: headlights move when you turn the wheel?
Just hadn't seen that discussed, so it was a surprise. Or maybe it's a common feature now, but the car I came from was old enough NOT to have it? Interesting though. But I can't help but wonder if this is one of those "just another thing to break" type of things. |

"Lighting Package $650 Don’t just illuminate the road - enhance your nighttime driving confidence. Daylight-like full LED headlights turn to follow the curves in the road ahead, helping to reveal any roadside surprises around the bend. Adaptive Full LED Lights LED headlights make everything on and along the road easier to see, helping to reduce eye fatigue - especially on long drives. LED technology is used for both high and low beams. This technology is combined with the Adaptive feature: at speeds up to 35 mph, the headlights swivel to follow bends in the road, based on your steering wheel motion and other metrics. Automatic High Beams Driving at night is easier than ever when your BMW is equipped with Automatic high beams. A camera sensor in the rear-view mirror registers vehicles in front of you, oncoming traffic and the quality of road light, and automatically switches between high or low beams, as needed. This adds to your comfort by not only maximizing visibility, but also eliminating the need to dim the lights manually."
