Just as another perspective.

I used iDrive5 in 7 series loaner for a week a few months ago. Yes its different and has icons instead of menu's - but the Nav and sub menu's (e.g text messages) are very similar.

its just an evolution, and not a revolution over the already fast NBT. I didn't think 'wow I must have this'
i would like CarPlay and Waze, but that of course isn't released yet

The BMW apps (i use Audible and that M Power timing thing) are the same. The only advantage iDrive55 gave was connection to these apps over BT and not just cable.
