Garry,
Don't know about you but "up north" I had a dreadful time getting to test drive anything like the car I've got. Lucky I knew the 2.5litre straight six already, but the add ons to a large extent were guess work, "ooh that sounds nice"-type decisions.

I seem to remember a previous discussion on this thread. I believe that the consensus was that there are two versions of the On Board Computer (OBC) - a basic and an advanced.
These additional functions are only available on systems with the advanced OBC.
The advanced version comes with both versions of Nav and on cars with Advanced Air Conditioning, regardless of whether they have Nav.
Those with Std A/C and no Nav get the basic OBC.
Nav with Std A/C - Advanced OBC
Advanced A/C - Advanced OBC
No nav, Std A/C - Basic OBC

I've only got Advanced A/C and NO Nav and I do have the advanced OBC.

I don't think we have that option in the U.S. just wondering what is advanced air conditioning?

To name one thing: REST = advanced A/C. If you have a REST button on the right temperature dial youhave advanced A/C.

Can someone enlighten us as to why BMW offers different cars to the US and Europe?
Seems like we have similar tastes. Is it a manufacturing thing?
