My E90 is in the shop, warranty work.
While it's there I have a shiny 2015 328xi. There are some things I like a lot about the car that I don't have, and some things I like less.
But, I did find the smarter smart key (convenience package?), well, convenient. It's not a hassle to take my key out of my pocket and hit the button, and to plug it into the car, but it was nice to not HAVE to do that.
Is this something I can add to my current car? Is it a parts purchase, or is it a, shoulda bought one with that already, sort of thing.
I also really liked the rear camera for parking. Mine has the nav system but no parking assist. That would be handy in NYC where my parking is 99% parallel, which I'm great at, but it was nice not having to crank my neck back and forth and rely on a slight tap to the guy behind or in front of me.
Anyway, are either of the above things I can add on?
As for things I like less, well, the nose. I dislike the newer models front-end design. I like the curves of my '11 much better than the '15. I'm I alone in this feeling? Also, I dislike the nav display on the newer models. I like it build down into my dash. Now, if that little tv would descend into the dash when off, THAT would be cool.
