John as nice as BSM looks, I only drool over ILB or Imola…..of course a very polished TiAg causes me to drool just a bit ;)

That button is completely useless. I'll bet you that maybe only 1 out of 1000 people actually uses it.
Hill Descent Control is a wasted space on the button panel...

It's not an 'xi' button. It's a button for Hill Descent Control (HDC), which only the AWD ones had.
Its purpose is so that when you are faced with a steep hill and it just so happens to be snowy, you engage HDC and the car will go down the hill and brake for you.

Unfortunately it's very very slow; I could get down the hill a lot faster and just as safely in my RWD Bimmer as any AWD E46 could without having to use it.
It's also a feature that nobody seems to use, rending it pointless.

Nothing and its going to be that way for the foreseeable future... Other than maintenance. Been planning for the wedding and looked at the budget again last night before trying to finalize the venue...:jawdrop

I could buy two m3's and do maintenance for a couple years WTF!?

I do have plans to integrate the radar mute button into the HK speaker button and install the air intake temperature sensor relocation kit I have.
