[doublepost=1470087195][/doublepost]BMW and I will talk when it comes to the new 3 Series. Until then I'll just keep my trusty '06 330xi with the Pioneer CarPlay unit.
Also, tesla is admired for its technology and not its looks. The current tesla, alright it was improved with the facelift, does look nothing like its price tag. Just look at the rear lights and the cheap interior.
I know firsthand it's an amazing car but being electric drive doesn't automatically make it look better.
