Yeah I hear the new ID8 screens are a major improvement. I hear ID8 has more layers and is more complicated vs previous iDrive versions. I don't mind the looks of the iX as it stands out as more futuristic compared to other EV's that were designed to blend in with ICE vehicles.

The resolution is fantastic, and the interface is colourful but sophisticated. The instruments are also nice and vibrant, compared to the darker and plainer theme on other models.
It makes CarPlay and Android Auto look even more dated than they felt at launch, especially on such an enormous screen. |

I mean all car makers do this now. I at least appreciate that BMW has done different styling across the range whereas the new S580 looks like a C Class and E Class.
What I don't like is BMW starting to make all cars really fast and making the exhausts quiet on M models. I really have no reason to buy another M car after my current one when I can get a M50i variant for $30k less.
