what's next? comfort access subscription? Pay to open your sunroof fully?
Agreed. I can see some novelty or specialized "fun" features being offered as subscription-based (e.g., lap timers or recorders) as not everyone uses them, but such basics as heated seats? Will they progress onto other things like AC or one-touch window controls next? Maybe they will rethink some of this as they did with CarPlay. Hate to say my X5 may be my last BMW when the lease is up in two years if this is the stuff they are doing...
