Great writeup thanks for sharing!

On your complaints:
Quote:
+ There is no instantaneous fuel economy feedback
For that, considering buying one of these when they come out might.

Quote:
+ Here is a weird one. If you are listen to radio (navigation screen closed) and just change to another pre-programed station by push one of the number buttons, the navigation screen flips up
Noticed that as well, would like to be able to use the radio (and change stations) without the screen flipping back up, oh well.

Quote:
+ The ‘Glove box’ joke. This tiny globe box must be the result of BMW enforcing the requirement to have a glove box in every car. The owner manuals do not fit in the glove box
It's pretty much for gloves... no really, very thin gloves haha. Yeah it's almost like the engineers are secretly laughing at the tiny glove box.

Quote:
+ Crappy Cup holders.
I've been thinking about these lately. I think that if you can make the ratcheting of the arm that holds the cup stronger (to make it actually grip the cup), it would actually be quite useful.
