It enables taillight as DRL. That is, taillights are on when daytime running lights are on instead of just headlights.

It adds weather band to the entertainment options (assuming the hardware is capable of supporting it).

It enables the ///M logo in the digital cluster. As far as I know, that's standard on an M-car in the first place.

It enables blind spot detection from speeds of 12 mph and up instead of from 30 mph and up.

Adds NO weather band. Only works on HU_CIC/HU_Entry.

US = Automatic On / Off
Euro = Tunneling

If you have HUD, it is redundant. But, it is BC option in cluster.

I have an 2016 M3, and have done quite a bit coding myself.

M3 doesn't have fog lights.

I found the following to be very useful:
* Easy Entry
* Rear fog light (which requires a bit of DYI on the button, but super easy)
* Eliminate Speed Locks for Owner’s Manual & Bluetooth pairing
* Disable Welcome 3 Gongs
* Remove trunk kick delay
* Heated Seat adjustment

Other pure cosmetic options to consider:
* Turn off Amber Side Markers next to Headlight
* Increase Angle Eyes / DRL Brightness to 100%
* GTS Logo in the Cluster

Speed and steering wheel direction based changing of light pattern of low beams. Comparatively, NGHB's uses the KAFAS2/3 or FLA camera behind rear-view mirror for high beam tunneling.
