      @sly9263 Рік тому

      eh... I disagree there. BMW interiors aren't unique across their entire model range, aside from a few subtleties. They look great inside- subdued but modern, not overstyled (like mercedes), though they wear poorly over time. They do have the best infotainment in the industry. BMW pretty much puts all their engineering into performance, which is fine, but they don't have special interiors across their range; they're all pretty much copy paste. Lexus has mediocre performance but their interiors feel much more special... but are also dated with a shit infotainment.

      You are an up-badger. The worst kind of car owner.
      Not to mention, the 6 series has never once been the most expensive BMW. Not once in history. The 7 series has always eclipsed the 6 and 8, and still does. The salesman lied to you and told you you bought "the most expensivest BMW M650i"

The 6 series was always more expensive than the 7, always. An 8 series was produced 20+ years ago that was more, put only for a few years when there was no 6. Now the badge of the 6 is now an 8 as it’s always been the most expensive. And yes dear the 650ix with the M package which adds steering input, gearing input, exhaust input, added gauges, increased speed, bigger tires and brakes, different wheels, and exterior body panel changes, is in-fact what an M850 is exactly. And yes, my car, chassis and engine all have factory M badges.

    I have a BMW M850 XDrive. Year 2019. After purchase, everything worked. I went for chip tuning and popcorn making. Then I went to a mechanic who replaced the battery in the front of my car (technical) and did some digging because I wanted to have a BMW Me. Car from the USA and he came to the conclusion that he wouldn't do it. I picked up the car, the radio was Sirus (America), it was impossible to change the time, it was New York. I did a reset from the panel in the car. But what's most interesting. Previously, I had a different car sound with eco and switching to sport+. Now I don't feel any difference when starting the car. And there was a different characterization. The flaps open. and they are open all the time. Tuning has been undone. I called the dealership and they said that the flaps should open in comfort and sport+ modes. However, they are still open. The guy who previously converted from the US to the EU accessed my car remotely and doesn't know what could be wrong. I have a cable for remote connection.
    the steering wheel also behaves similarly in all modes.
    I have the impression that the car is in sport mode. Changing to comfort and eco does not cause any difference in the behavior of the car and the steering wheel works just as hard.
    The only difference is in sport+, where the car actually revs higher.
    I've read that people have various problems after replacing the battery. technical, but I haven't read about a case like mine anywhere.
    Please help.

    Its interesting that the BMW M850i, i8, and Acura NSX are all quite dashing and so different, yet miss the mark in similar ways. When you have 100k to 150k to spend, you do not want a Mercedes C class, Audi A3, BMW 2 series, nor Acura TLX interior. So when put these two up next to the Mercedes Benz AMG GTR, Audi R8, Aston Martin Vantage, and Porsche 911 you start to wonder "why the heck do I feel so slow? And why does my luxury halo car interior feel cheap all of a sudden?"

      It's the "less auspicious" option.
