Things not available on the e9x M3, that you hope are available on the f8x

SBRIAN · 08-16-2013, 05:23 PM

hope they can put installed V1 radar on the option list

osteome · 08-16-2013, 05:25 PM

VTEC or a Hybrid drivetrain.

......I kid

mjposner · 08-16-2013, 05:52 PM

Fuel dipstick, so if gas gauge fails I can check and an Engine crank, so when starter or battery dies I can crank her up.

BMW=NO DIPSTICK Get over it.

Seat belts that don't tighten up like the Vulcan death grip when you accelerate hard.

what about ECOPRO mode?

F1Venom · 08-16-2013, 07:09 PM

NOS.

HeartMD · 08-16-2013, 07:19 PM

+1 on a physical dipstick. Nightvision display, HUD and ventilated seats. Other then that those concept pictures look pretty sweat sporting the aerodynamic package. The biggest inquery I have is what is the price tag on a fully loaded one. Gotta admit after looking at those concept videos this car looks amazing on the exterior. It pretty much is gonna really sucks for the cosmetic aftermarket market as I dont personally see anything that I would ever want to change on the exterior.

Nonsense, you can get painted rear reflectors from IND!

Loose the seat belt helper.
Make the NAV, Premium sound and other bundled options more ala carte choices.
Add a 50 caliber machine gun front left side.

3. Spare tire. At least make this an option, what i am really looking for is a trunk designed to fit a spare tire. The weight savings in a 3700 lb car is lost on me who doesn't track. If i did track, i'd take out my spare tire prior.

Another thought I has was an upgraded brakes option, but that looks to be a reality.

What do you think?

Car will have none of these stock. Dipstick, lol, keep dreaming. Pedals available for sale from BMW. Looking at my wife's F30, there is no way we're getting a spare in the trunk.

All would be nice though!!
