I have OS8 and the „big screen BS“. Everything I drive an older BMW now it feels like going back to stoneage. But some people like vintage stuff. I don’t.
Had both,ID8 is far superior once you use it daily.
Yup, I have both and the big screen is really nice once you have everything set up the way you like it. Not liking it is just a cope for not having it.
Thank you! People hating because they don’t have it! You couldn’t have said it any better!
Definitely not, I think most of us prefer this layout. The type of people who like the big screens are the modern day equivalent of people who found excessively gaudy gold decor (like at the trump hotels) to be classy
Those interiors are the peak. For me those are the best. New idrive is shit. I hate it.
yeah that’s why I made sure to get a pre-LCI 340i
I still prefer the round dials and simple interiors. Basically anything from the E90/F10 era and before.
Owned the f90 m5 comp with the round dials just before the lci came out with the new speedo…horrible
Huh. The E30 318i I used to own and the E34 M5 I currently own both had wonderful round dials. Then again I’m probably the old man shouting at clouds here lol.
might’ve misunderstood me…but I was trying to say the round dials looked the best. Classy and easier to read imo.
i dont mind the screen but the gear selector kills me:/
‘22 over ‘23 any day
I prefer this
Agreed, no curved screen. I’m a fan of analog cluster also. F30 analog cluster 8.8" screen.
iDrive 8 is horrendous, very disappointing.
Thing about an all in one display is that if it’s going to go, it’s all going to be gone and it’s going to need replacing since you need the driver display. Can be an issue if not done properly.
I’ve used indrive 7 for 11 months and I drive 8 for 4 months. It’s not much of a difference for me, I prefer Apple car play to be used mostly anyways…
The climate control buttons actually were not sensitive enough in my 3 series it was annoying, where as the touch screen for idrjve 8 works every time. The app for my 3 series sucked as well for pre conditioning, like worked half of the time. It works every time with the I drive 8.
I do miss having a gear shifter though, my i4 just as that switch.
how’s the i4 out on the highways?
It’s very quiet. It feels similar to a 3 series, but not quite the same. I think it’s due to being a heavier vehicle and 6 inches longer than the 3.
I do miss my previous car sometimes, but this one is significantly cheaper to own.
Sat in my brother’s 2024 4 series today and it’s amazing; love it
“Hey guys does anyone else prefer the horse and buggy design to these new buggies with engines?”
I prefer analog gauges and black plastic. That’s just me though…
