If I were driving a large vehicle/SUV, blind spot assistance and back-up camera/assistance would make sense. But in a car the size of the 2er, it seems like a waste of money. I'd rather put the money into things that improve performance and comfort.
If a child is behind the car then you'll feel really sick if you run it over. Just see how far a child has to be away from the rear of the car before you will see it from a mirror or looking over your shoulder.

Did they change the font color of the Temp controls screen from orange to white? I just did a car build and it's white.

I'm not familiar with how they were previously - but when the headlights are off, the HVAC lights are now white. When the lights are on, the HVAC controls are back to the signature BMW orange.

Looks like they did. The center console region around the vents looks to be piano black too, and there is a chrome surround around the centre vents too.

Ok Yeah that's new forsure. Font color used to be orange with the headlights on or off.

This is why parking sensors is a good thing.
