My rant on my newly purchased BMW X3 is the option packages for 2016 Canadian models:
To me, useful features (the ones I really, really wanted) are:
- Adaptive cruise control
- True keyless entry
- HUD (with speed limit info)
- Paddle shifter, sport + mode
- Leather
- Panoramic roof
- Sport seats
- Harmon Sound System
- Sport Suspension
Useless features
- Surround view
- Connected Drive
- Concierge Service
- Remote Services
- BMW online
To get the options I really wanted, I had to buy packages full of features I didn't... The prices in Canada for options are crazy expensive compared to the US too...
Anyway, I got the car I love at a price that I'm willing to pay and when I stack it against the competition it still holds... I wish, however, they packaged these cars up a bit better but they probably did it on purpose.

Dumb Canadian Option Packages
