It's great to see it because after working with Audi's MMI in the S5 it really is a much easier setup to work with.
yes also true. there is no denying that bmw got ideas from the MMI for this next generation i-Drive, but that is a good thing because MMI is sweet (as you mentioned).

i don't know how other users feel, but i think it is good to have different perspective. even if he is an audi lover, no reason why he can't belong here too.
