I agree it is possible to drive the car without the gauge, but it would have been a lot better to have it, and the extra cost for BMW to provide it in an iDrive screen would be close to zero. It would definitely be an added value to me as a customer.

I think BMW is slowly leaving its core values behind by small things like omitting temperature dials, limited slip differential, non run flat tires, naturally aspirated engines and so on. If they also choose to sacrifice rear wheel drive for the hatchbacks, the cars do no longer stand out from the crowd as something special for those of us who really like to drive.
