Nothing worked. I might have to bring the car to a dealership.

Does anyone with 6MT have the same issue???
You just have to press the "M mode" button. Annoying that you can't have it pre-selected with M1 or M2

Some member posted a photo the new M3 had the roof rack mounting holes, you defiantly can have the bike rack install.

I picked up my 6MT today and definitely want to get a clutch stop. The travel on the clutch is way too much, and it leads to a bit of an awkward driving position. I have to have the seat further forward than I would like, which then strains my right foot a bit due to the odd angle. Guess I could always start wearing platform shoes.
A BMS clutch should fit. Let us know!

Does the M3 Comp have power fold mirrors? Haven't seen this on the spec list but might have missed it.

3. Not sure on this one - don't have another 3 to compare it too. But I think it's a bit bigger than the current 3-series.

4. Haven't tried auto parking, but the 360 camera is amazing. When you hit park it shows where your doors will open and gives a great shot of where you are in the space. Also very helpful for parking/avoiding curbs, etc. Lane change works well (I don't use it) but you can set it so it is automatically engaged with her key. Has different sensitivity and vibration on the steering wheel depending on your preference.

I agree . The 360
Cameras are awesome. I had to move the majority of my garage gym inside but had to leave the squat rack and the cameras ensures I don’t get too close. Even provides a view from above which is amazing.

And if you have the connected drive app you can pull up a live 360 view on your phone from anywhere.

Coming back to this. I actually don't have rear heated seats. In my mind I did, but I think that's because I had them in my F80. In looking at the BMW site, they don't have any package with rear heated seats. In the F80 they had a cold weather package, but they don't offer that here.

Damn that sucks. So no rear heated seats or rear arm rest? That's quite a cheap move for a not cheap car.

I filled my G82 today with gas. The tank is only a little over 13 gallons. Fuel economy is terrible. The range is in the low 300's with a full tank. But I still LOVE HER!!❤️❤️

Low 300s with a smaller g80 tank sounds damn good to me. I only hit 300 once in my F80 and that was a long highway road trip. I’m normally at 220-250 to the tank because I drive the car hard.

It's a shame they get rear heated seats in Europe/Canada, rear center armrest and also the fancy frozen colors for 50% off. I wonder how hard it will be to buy the part and install it myself. So dumb on their behalf I'd pay extra for that feature.

Here is the rear heated seat option for EU:

Frustrating paying $100,000 and you get blank buttons in the rear.

They do end up having to pay more for interior features like carbon and full leather, costs $5500 Canadian for those two options.

Also the rear armrest has vanished as an option, I'm guessing it was an error as it never had an image as well. For whatever reason they didn't include a rear armrest for the G80; which seems odd! Makes sense in the G82 maybe. Oh well.

Dude Frozen Dark Grey costs 5070 Dollar (4700 CHF) in Switzerland, same goes for Frozen Portimao Blue. Frozen Brilliant White is even more...
Rear heated seats costs additional money.
Armrest I have no idea

Me too, I would consider 300 miles in my F82 a big win. 220ish is about average for me, but I do a lot of shorter journeys (particuarly in current circumstances).

I always have it in Sport/Sport Plus and can't resist blipping the throttle and doing quick WOT in low gears to get the over-run/lift-off bark - which obviously is not anywhere close to being fuel efficient. Yeah I know I need to grow up

After a bit over a week, my car is showing pretty low "lifetime" mileage, about 15.6 US MPG, but it's all been street driving so far and I'm still getting used to her. Looking at the breakdown, the first few miles were pretty low MPG and that would have been when the car was in Germany.

My drive yesterday was just to a coffee shop after work, about 13 miles one way, with some curves and a few opportunities for playing around. It was raining quite hard so that held me back from having a ton of fun. On that trip, the car said I did about 20 MPG, which isn't terrible.

Also, coming from an F87C, I'll be happy if I don't have to stop at a gas station every 180 miles.

How good is the wireless Android auto integration? I've only ever used the wired version on my Jeep.

And, I reup my question of is there a power port under the passenger side dashboard as in the previous generation
