2025 looks like a Lincoln SUV



Is that a copyright thing?

Think of the 4 series more like a dual Chiron

Absolutely. But then again, I live in Arizona.

No ... because they are terrible on all BMWs I've owned to-date ... don't actually do much at all

Neck warmer on the other hand, yes all day long!

[BEAR-AvHistory]

Yes & the neck warmer would be a +

I've had them on other cars. They're pretty much useless. Heated yes. Ventilated, waste of money.

i got mine with every option and was disappointed and surprised the ventilated seats were not an option. betting you get in on the higher $ 8 series vert but not on this?

As a Florida resident I would only be interested in the cooling factor.

I would assuming that the cost would the same or similar as other models ($350ish?). Kinda’ surprised they’re not offered on the Z4, but it’s not a dealbreaker.

First time I experienced ventilated seats was in a brand new 2002 BMW 745i. They worked pretty well on a hot California day. That car also had the first iDrive system too. Pretty controversial, as I recall.

100% true. Garbage.

Yes! At this price point is should have them as well as a powered steering column. I also have a 15’ SLK55 AMG that doesn’t have the vent seats but does have a powered steering column. Just makes getting in and out easier. Then again it was also 83k.

I agree about having a powered steering column! 👍🏻

Meh; My F type had all that stuff.....and a motor for the vents to rise out of the dash and a motor for the spoiler to go up at a certain speed and, and, and........and all that stuff is partially why it weighed 400lbs more than my Z4.

.....my Audi SQ8 has all that and more but it's an SUV so I don't care much about how much it weighs but on a sportscar, lighter is better IMO...within reason. One of the reasons I sold my F type was because it was bumping on 4,000 lbs and it wasn't even the AWD version.
