M4 idrive vs Z06 interface & capabilities
I'm shopping the Z06 and getting down to the real world livability details.
I've got an M4 on order and the delays make all (most) of us look around. I love the around town daily driving enjoyment of massive torque. The Z06 has gobs of it, and although the pics of the car are polarizing, the car, in person, is impressive. The idrive w touch writing surface is one of the not so highly published, wonderful features of the M4. Being able to control the gps from it, while driving, is a huge feature. Does anyone know how this, and any other of the not so heavily published details of the Z06 compare? |

after seeing the vette in person, at first i was like wow that thing looks aggressive as f*ck.. but as time passed, the car started looking a little childish (too many vents and what not)
It's like they say. Usually something that looks good instantly ends up aging poorly.. while something that looks decent ends up growing on you my opinion of course |

I've been looking at a normal C7, and it seems from the C7 forums that GM has not solved the electrical nannies on the car. Hopefully more software updates will be created, but it seems like the GM system (not sure what it is called) is crap.
Screen resetting itself while driving, getting frozen, etc, bluetooth not pairing. Granted, I personally don't care too much as long as it doesn't cause the car to crash since I really only leave it on one station, and I don't call people over bluetooth too much.

GM's newest infotainment system is pretty simple. Not as complex as BMW's but it works pretty well in my experience. It's about 100 times better than the one in the C6. You won't be using it much anyway with 630hp under your foot.
