This interior stinks!
I buy BMW's because they are euro style, not american (no offense intended). They had a style and flow that married proportion with class, with clean lines and distinctive branding. Now, we have an overdone theme full of gadgets that are impacting negatively on the driving experience. BMW are devaluing their brand with this stuff. That interior is a joke. How cheap looking can they get? What on earth do we need a start stop button for? I'm driving a 330 at the moment and this button strikes me as totally pointless. With key in hand it is insert and turn.... a single movement, yet with the button it is insert the fob, then reach for and press the start button. And because it is on the dash behind your line of sight from the wheel you have to feel around for it....... For those of us with a fair few keys on the keyring, we now get to scratch the trim instead of them hanging in space. Where are BMW going? What is the benefit? This ranks up there with run flat tyres for ideas that should have stayed just that........

Doesn't comfort access allow you to keep your keys in your pocket, all the time?

Is it me or does it appear that the water bottles are leaning back and in the way of the radio and whatever is underneath? And this harsh line on the center console is really starting to look alien.

![]() vs. ![]() didn't this end up having the 2nd best interior design for a certain year? I read it in some old thread. Last edited by jaba; 06-28-2006 at 05:28 PM. |

Well, cheap or not, at least they got rid of those terrible geometric shapes around the air conditioning controls.
That angled part I've circled below has always CUT into my knee area. Aside from all the space lost in the X5 interior door panels, this was the second worst engineered piece in the interior. Third...the rear cover thing on rails. I went through several new ones.

(sorry, PNG). In Acura and other cars you keep the keyfob in pocket at all times. The car will not start if the keyfob is not inside the car and the car will not lock if the keyfob is inside the car or trunk. |

Hello everyone, this is my first post here
.....hopefully I will be around more because we are looking at getting either the new X5 or V5 as a replacement for my wife's 2001 X5."Comfort Access" DOES allow you to start the car while the key is in your pocket. The confusion is that not all cars that have the rectangular key and a "push start" button on the dash have the Comfort Access option. On the newer E60's the rectangular key and Push Start button is standard, however, unless you pay $1000 for the Comfort Access option you still have to insert the key in the dash before you push the start button. So the bottom line is the Push Start button DOES NOT MEAN that the car has Comfort Access......it just means it has a Push start button. However, if the car does have Comfort Access then there is no need to insert the key in the dash, it can stay in your pocket or purse. |
