I'm waiting for the bugs to be worked out too! But most of all I want the diesel, night vision to deal with the deers and a better a nav system. I would love the ability for my office to email the nav with my next appointment.

Most of all the diesel!

The system uses an intelligent alternator, which during braking engages and powers up the battery to 100 per cent with what would have been lost energy. It also reduces drag on the engine by only engaging and charging when required. BMW’s Brake Energy Regeneration system cuts CO2 emissions and fuel consumption by around three percent.

Brake Energy Regeneration is part of the company’s Efficient Dynamics program that aims to reduce vehicle weight, lower fuel consumption and improve efficiency in other areas such as aerodynamics, all with the aim of developing more power from less fuel in a lower-weight vehicle."

A bit too optimistic but I too hope that the paddle shifters plus the height adjustable air suspension will be included in the MY08s.
