- Delivery was delayed by a day - the software update had to be applied a 3rd time because it failed halfway through the first couple of times - and they had various cars in line…
* I did NOT have to sign extra paperwork from BMW about the Touchscreen itself.
I think BMW NA is covered legally, but I think it’s still worth expressing our individual experiences to corporate, and I’m not above participating in a class-action if I get the opportunity to have the touchscreen installed.
Now, I’m still thrilled with the new car, so I think I’ll be able to see past this for the time being. iDrive is still the best in my view.
Good luck to everyone else taking deliveries soon!

Congrats on the new car!
