actually, the premium package makes it so that you don't HAVE to hold the phone to your ear. the idea being to allow you to pay better attention to the road, and keep both hands on the wheel. the topic being discussed was the worthwhile-ness of the premium package and bluetooth, not cell phones.

and fyi... that's "imbEciles."

As you can see below, BD said any communication device and I agree. Even with BT, you are paying more attention to your conversation than your driving.

Plus its not really that much more expensive than just leather alone.
ZPP is $2865..you really think BT is worth $2865? And $1200 more to get it with leather is not really that much more expensive? Are you Bill Gates?

Some owners have found that they can't find a comfortable position for the lumbar support and don't use it at all.

One thing about this issue and any other personal preferrence when it comes to optioning out ones car and asking for advice on this forum....opinions are like nipples, everyone has two.
