Yes and they are creeping back in. Prob is maybe in 10 to 20 yes when more of the populous is more adept to computers then we will see. But there are sub menus under sone if this buttons also accessible through idrive

And thank goodness for that. I'd take hydraulic steering over electric steering anyday, even if it means lack of extra options like parking assist.
Right. This notable omission
Of elec Steering tells us that it is not ready for prime time on performance cars. Would not be surprised if it becomes an option of later model f10s tied to the park assist option. For now until it is perfected hydraulic ftw

Today was heavy rain in Moscow and I was waiting my turn to drive M cars. Unfortunately for drive were only X5M and X6M. But there was new M5 on a stand.
I choose X5M and it was fantastic emotions and experience . It was a real pity not have a chance to drive new M5, but i can tell you, that it was so great car, just perfect, but despite of this fact all were stared on "Holy" 1M Coupe. It's truly unbelievable.
Also manager said that there will be produced 4500 1M all over the world.
I must have one!

I was concerned about that statement because nobody public is allowed to drive the car until later this year. The M5 will be at the M-Festival , following that an appearance at the Goodwood Festival of Speed , then it will be at the IAA in Frankfurt in September.

It's USA public Premiere will be at the LA Autoshow in November , Whilst it will make it's Asian Premiere at the Tokyo Show in December.

European Sales begin from November , Asian sales from January 2012 and US sales in the Spring of 2012. Other markets are in the above timeframes.
