What options/packages were a "must have" for you?

Pretty much all of them except CCB, which I had on my previous F82, heated steering wheel, sunroof and CarPlay.

As a daily driver in the pacific northwest, I needed:

ZCP - just cuz
Heated steering wheel - one feature I'll never go without after having it in my f30 5 years ago.
Backup cam/parking sensors - daily driving, makes for simple parking
Sunroof - On dark color exterior cars, CF doesnt show well, and I get mount points for roof rack.

Garage List
- Executive package so I could get the HUD and park distance control
- Driver assistance so I could get the cameras
- LED headlights
- Adaptive suspension (for these terrible DC roads)
- CF roof
- DCT (I finally felt it was time after my last 6MT)

My final decision buying used was to get a fully loaded low miles 2015 vs a 2016 I may have had to sacrifice feature with to get the ZCP. I didn't like the ZCP wheels or loss of lumbar (I go on a lot of road trips) and figured I can use the ZCP money for more power output from better mods.

These were pretty much the same exact must haves for me, which I got all of when I bought mine.
