Looking for buying advice

Thank you for the advice craniac24. We had read that the restrictions on the Nav system while you are driving can be annoying (no access to full list of phone numbers, not being able to do detailed search on GPS while driving and a few other things). We always drive with my wife and we would like the freedom to operate the nav system with no limitations when there is a second person in the car.

We are both feeling this is the right car for us. (We still want to test drive a Z4 first

).

Cheers!!!

Ahh...i see. Well, most of the features are accessible via the voice recognition feature. But I agree...that's one thing that's a little bit annoying. In a perfect world, I'd wish there was an override for that.

That is how Nav runs on many cars, my sister has a 4runner and you cant do things on the GPS while you are moving. For every person who says they need it if there is a second person in the car, there is going to be 50 that just want to screw with it while driving and cause accidents.

Is there anything else you might recommend to say "it looked good on the brochure" but wasnt worth purchasing? Or any other quirks of the car?
