Memotronic

For me

The features I like to be updated are

O seat built warnning, disable/enable
O engin temperature Gauge in idrive monitor
O Navigation system with road maps
O DVD & MP3
O windows & roof automatic luck if opened for long time and car is off
O mobile must come in colore screen, faster with more features.

About new Feature I like


O I want iDrive which I hear is based on windows ce to have more capabilities such as PDA mobiles >> ringtoons >> games >> programs and so on
O I feel there is no places inside the car for keeping thing such as books, cameras , and other things. I don't want them to be moved right & left if kept on back seat while I am driving >> at least if they can make bags or any kind of storage that can be fit in trunk.
O access to the internet
O chat or messenger with other BMW cars whom has idrive and chating software

1. The trunk needs to have soft close feature like 7-Series. It needs quite a force to close the trunk. It seems like it misalign or something.
2. Disable/Enable seatbelt chimes through i-Drive
3. CD changer in dash and MP3 capability
4. Outsource or consult with Lexus for software and electrical design . If Software and Electrical is as good as Lexus, BMW will beat Lexus in sale in a heart beat.
5. Coolant temperature gauge
6. Nice odometer like the one in M5
7. Need to consult with Audi's interior design department. Wood trim does not fit nicely around the airflow vent. What's wrong?
8. Need to tweak audio system to make it sound more lively instead of flat
9. Improve throttle response
10. Headlight sensor needs to be redesigned. Light turn on during sunlight? Sensor gets blinds in the sunshine?

1. auto trunk closer
2. keyless start
3. one button to close all windows and moonroof
4. dvd changer in dash
5. coin holder
6. transition windows (very slight tint in dark and change to darker in sunlight)
7. electronic damping control like the m5
8. larger idrive screen w/tv capability
9. better cupholders
10. brighter headlights (i know some are saying our xenon is not as bright as the other cars)
11. most important of all, better service !

i can only think of these for now .

I like Mercedes method of car recognizing owner when unlocking the door by just touching it and starting the car without key. (Driver has transponder in pocket.)
Want to see more controls of car by voice recognition like fan speed, temperature, mode of a/c, setting ventillation time, etc. Want to save messages to computer like PDA by voice. If not show personal calender with appointments, at least show monthly calender on screen. Keep records in computer with ability to transfer to thumbdrive or pda. Good for travel records, gas purchases, tire purchases, thoughts, reminders, etc. Recall owner's manual by voice on i-drive screen or off of dvd, can include video instructions, pictures, etc. in the car where you need it.
I really want a small camera on the front bumper looking left to see around corners when at a blind intersection. Screen image can be on i-drive small window and comes on when car stops.
More storage around driver. More choices of colors and trim. Make it harder for people to accidentally change stored seat settings in memory. Show gear setting in hud. I'd like more light to rear when backing up at night. Softer console arm rest with some adjustability up and down. And definitely offer auxilliary audio input to stereo so can add external source like ipod, computer source like external navigation or dvd player, radios of various kinds (scanner, sw, tv audio, cassette player, ham).

And well, maybe some sub light engines and inertial dampeners (Been watching Sci Fi channel a lot)

I could not expect better lights on a vehicle. These lights will fluoroscope anything they touch.

I hope theese dots don't have such a great sexual content.

Some of you really act like talibans here. It was just a joke.

No offense.

That's an available accessoir.
