If you want to see what you're missing...

For those of us with hardly any options, it's painful reading to see what we are missing out on.

Needs updating to include the 125

Would be great to see if any of those packages are available aftermarket for retrofit

Looks like I got the options I wanted, and maybe a couple more, that I could not get rid of. I got rid of the run-flat tires after ordering the car, but I still have the sliding armrest. What is the point of that sliding feature? I don't get it.

If I want to drive fast, I need to fold the armrest back anyway, as it is in the way of my elbow.

I spent days and weeks with the option list to be sure I made the right decisions. When I see all the efforts some of you guys go through by retrofitting this or that, I don't understand why you didn't order these options together with the car? Especially since the costs are hardly any lower by retrofitting.
Unless you are living in a country where the availability of options is limited.

Thanks for sharing!
It looks like I've made the right decisions.

The only thing I've missed is the enhanced Bluetooth. The description of this says that you can pair 2 mobile devices at the same time. I asked my dealer why to choose for the enhanced Bluetooth and he said that the bluetooth audio streaming and the possibility to make emergency calls are the main benefits.
Now it seems that the standard Bluetooth can only pair one device and the enhanced two.

Since I've two devices (one for work and one for private) I would have opted for this one

I don't understand why the options are so briefly described in the brochures..

So if you want to make a call, how does the car know which phone to use?

ronald89 · 07-21-2012, 03:00 AM

Maybe you can select one of the phones via iDrive before making a call? I don't know

I'm also wondering how this would work with Voice Control?
