Ok I have finished ranting.
A lot of car company's are doing the stereo integrated with a lot of other stuff these days it's not BMW unique, but its really problem if you want something else in your car.

True on the battery. I just dropped close to $400 to replace my battery coz it had to be coded and such. WTF? I have a Nissan Armada that we use for long drives with the family. The battery went out after 6 years. I went to Walmart and picked up a $50 battery and installed it myself. Only thing I lost was the programmed FM stations. I mean, how sophisticated should a battery be?
