Or the vast distances as you head west.

It IS her car, as was the '99 Z3 she drove for 22 years. I drive an '07 Saab wagon, but am feeling very electric-curious.

Sometimes, though, she lets me drive when we want to go play in the twisties.

I wouldn't be too sure. It is amazing to some what hill they will die on. Indeed, the cup holders is/was one of my concerns.

First World Problems, and all that.

Frankly in this day and age a cup holder is expected.

Make sure you get the garage door opener too! In Canada at least, it's no longer part of any packages and a separate item. I guess it makes it easier to BMW to omit the feature without having to reimburse the buyer anything. Probably the same reason the charge pad is separate now too. Take features out, but MSRP probably never changed
