I'm not talking about criticising any of the driving aspects - I'm talking about desire. If I don't desire something, I'm not going to try it on for size...

If you're happy with the car that's perfectly ok with me - and I wish you many hours of motoring bliss.

Those "silly" graphics? Like oil pressure, engine oil temp, trans oil temp, trans oil pressure..... I know lots of folks that are envious of me for having that information at my fingertips.
The M3 as you know displays the oil temp which is important mainly to know when you can step on it.

All the rest are completely irrelevant in a road car IMO - why would you need to know the oil pressure or tranny oil temp? Does it have a tendency to overheat so you must keep an eye on it? That could get pretty distracting...
