Australian e93 Brochure

astra · 02-14-2007, 09:49 PM

don't know if any or all of you have seen it yet...

so here's a scan of the australian e93 brochure...

Wow.. sweeeet.
Are you a convertible fan yourself astra?

Sparky66 · 02-18-2007, 09:42 AM

Anyone notice the 1-8 push buttons between the cd and dvd drive ? The E92 coupe with i-drive does not have these buttons. Are they for radio station presets ?? What gives ????

danielt · 02-18-2007, 04:43 PM

they are programmable iDrive buttons, so you can navigate with the push of a button to an iDrive specific function...whether that be a preset radio station, a preset Nav destination, etc etc

probably done to get the motoring press off their back about iDrive's lack of intuitivity!!

astra · 02-18-2007, 05:51 PM

that's a really cool idea

danielt · 02-18-2007, 06:01 PM

about time, shame the buttons are only coming in March 07 production vehicles onwards. i also heard they are actually updating iDrive this year - dunno if it'd be as dramatic as like upgrading from XP -> Vista

astra · 02-25-2007, 11:11 PM

i wouldn't have thought it would be too dramatic... but perhaps just a little simpler/more user friendly

my gf was telling me last nite she wants to get a 335 convertible when it comes out and i was telling her to dream on

astra · 02-26-2007, 07:57 PM

vinno · 02-26-2007, 08:35 PM

Where/how/who/why did u get to go to preview weekend?
Is it an expo like the one for the 335? Damn im interested

astra · 02-26-2007, 08:54 PM

uhmm, i think they just show you around the car and you have a drive and stuff... just ask your dealer to put your name down for it

funky_chilli · 02-26-2007, 10:43 PM
