I dont care so much about 8.5 as hands free driving up to 75 mph or so. I know its not offered (for technical reasons) but I might pony up a subscription or upgrade fee later on if the car had the technical capability. BMW is looking at this as driver of revenue seemingly. I80 drive across Jersey to mother-in-law. Look ma: "no hands" Need to keep it mellow with wife in the car or hell to pay.
Only two of us in the Week 7 thread, including me, so no one really to talk to

The one thing I remember from the tour of the Munich plant was that every car they were painting that day was Alpine White, so they could batch features during production to an extent.

In terms of the chipset, I have a suspicion that only someone on the factory line would know.
