As the iDrive gives more options to interact with the car, I'm happy I got it. But I agree the price is stiff, especially if your main reason for getting it is for the Navi. And the implementation on the E90 is superior (at least to my 1st generation '08 128i) - especially the split screen options.

I think if the cost was dropped to around $1,300, it would be much more attractive.
