the highs and lows of the day.
i learned today that a white e90 is not invisible to radar (claimed 87 in a 65) nor laser (claimed 82 in a 65).
and... that if you push or pull the cruise control 'hard/far' the speed increments by 5 mph.

For me, the biggest surprise was comfortable ride. I always thought M3 would be harsher. And also it's more practical than I thought. I was thinking I would have problems with ground clearance, but no.

Radio station seek
Was mystified why such an essential feature was not in the owner's manual.
From iDrive, choose Radio>FM>Manual search. When the skeumorphic dial comes up, press the Next/Previous track button on the steering wheel. |

Plastic front fenders
I just learned that the front fenders of my M3 are plastic. Very interesting. For an M car, did BMW cheap out by not going carbon fiber like the Corvette Z06?

when you open the lid to the trunk compartment in the middle of the trunk floor where the mobility kit is,you can hold the lid open by sliding it up into a curved metal catch that holds it in place.a small thing,but helpful.

I was looking for this thread!
For power-folding equipped vehicles, the mirror will open automatically once you get rolling. Sometimes I park my car in a small garage and fold the mirror on the way out, and when i get out i forget to open the mirror. I was surprised it opens by itself once you drive 10+mph! |

I have a Titleist staff bag with a 46" driver and Jan Craig head covers. I put the top of my bag on the driver side first and the bottom towards the passenger side. No issues.

You should use the German equivalant "Dankeschön" then you might hear (provided the iDrive is active) a soft "Bitteschön" in return If any of you have a moon roof then look for the APSE (just above the ashtray). "Auto Passenger Seat Eject" Most of you don't have that so don't look for it Safe driving everyone and remember no texting while driving ....

Dagolfpro, those Titleist staff bags are humongous. I'm amazed that it fit. I discovered by accident that if you move your driver's seat(to clean or what not) and later when you open the door, the seat will move to your memory position 1 automatically. I have CA.
