  | MINiDrive. What do you think ... ... the press will do when they finally find out MINI (when ordered with a NAV system) is coming with a MINI-ish iDrive.  That will be very interesting read.   Also: - ONLY REGISTERED AND ACTIVATED USERS CAN SEE ALL LINKS - CLICK HERE TO REGISTER |

| Re: MINiDrive. What do you think ... With no intention to bash Mini/BMW it doesn't look very ergonomic. It's very close to the gear lever.  |

| Re: MINiDrive. What do you think ... I 'm righting it here and i hope someone from BMW/Audi/Mercedes will notice: Lexus system with the touch screen is better than any of the MMI, iDrive , Command systems! Sad but true.  |

 I'm more interested in press reaction to the fact MINI is getting iDrive (in whatever form it is, in whatever position its controller sits etc). Mini was seen as cute & fun & simple, while BMW was heavily criticized for iDrive. I can't wait to see the reaction now.  Will new MINI be criticized as well due iDrive, or press will be less bashing this time? Last edited by EnI; 09-21-2006 at 05:44 AM. | |

| Re: MINiDrive. What do you think ... Please, good people: DO NOT TAKE AWAY THIS THREAD BY STARTING TO FIGHT WHICH SYSTEM IS BETTER (iDrive vs. MMI vs Command vs etc)! |
