I'm more curious to know how perceptible the start-stop is for daily use. I absolutely hate start/stop in cars and when I found out (after placing my order) that BMW went to the mandatory 48V hybrid setup, I tried to change to an M50i but my dealer had no remaining allocations for those. I'm hoping this new system, with the electric assist, will at least be far less noticeable than the earlier implementations. I believe there is a possible design that I could tolerate but it really has to work flawlessly, for me.

Any feedback on the experience? A video would be awesome! (just sayin').
