The Ontario government rebate at the time I leased the car was a huge plus as well and the $2,000+ in fuel savings last year an added bonus.

The only issue I have encountered was the passenger seat adjustment screen appearing even though nobody was in the passenger seat. The dealer replaced a switch and no issues since. I believe the dealer also did a software upgrade when the car went in for its one year service but I had experienced none of the problems mentioned here at the time and have experienced none since.

The BMW Connected app on the other hand...!
What made you downsize from the 7?
