Fair point. So I will say, I like to be in control. But like with everything. YMMV.

And yes, my M50i does have that fancy auto driving. I turned it on to make sure it works, I probably will do the same right before the warranty expires...
Same here have absolutely zero interest in it

I was interested so I bought it. But I am just too nervous to use it.

I understand totally maybe I’m just getting old but I don’t understand why anybody wants a vehicle to drive them. I enjoy the driving experience interacting but again it’s probably my age.

At the risk of repeating myself, I just returned from a 2400 m road-trip over 10 days and used highway assist on every freeway I drove. I find myself much less fatigued after a eight hour day. I’ll never have another car without it. Trust it!
