It's not an i-Drive system with one control knob, but it still has one screen that displays audio, hvac and nav controls. I can't stand anything like that.
there are seperate buttons for all audio, hvac, and navi controls...all the screen does is display the current settings. What do you have against that? its not like you have one knob that controls everything.

It's annoying to switch through screens when a couple of good old fashioned LED displays work just fine and dandy.

It never shows all the info at once. It's nice to be able to glance and see what the stereo and hvac settings are without having to touch anything. Even that is another layer of complexity and fiddling which serves no purpose other than the gee-whiz factor of "oh looky here at this computer screen in my dash."

Please feel free to check out my Q45 personal website.

I've taken TONS of digital pics and videos.

I'm a fan of the 2002 model and don't like the 2005 changes, except maybe the addition to leds.

I want to see that motor with a pair of turbos on it mounted midship in something under 3500 pounds. Holy shit I just got goosebumps imagining that.

IMO, it looks too bland.

I-drive is simple and intuitive. Use it a couple of times and muscle memory does all the work.
