Most of what you mentioned would be considered electronic "toys". And BMW wasn't the first or sole manufacturer to release most of those items into their cars.

Face it, the F8X is a new chassis that is stiffer, lighter, and has features the E9X doesn't.

It is a generational leap forward. All those electronic gadgets you talk about only improve upon a well-designed car. They don't make the car.

And the fact that you can't hide your disdain for this car highlights your bias.
