Thanks for posting this review and I appreciate your honest comments. As an owner of one - 2023 840i Gran Coupe (non-x Drive - not available on the 840i in the UK) - I agree with your comments regarding the location of the cup holders. When I have my hands full and an early start, putting my flask in the cup holder and then placing my phone on the wireless charging pad is a bit of a pain. OK, first world problem I hear you say and yes, it is being very picky, but, as you say, it's an expensive car - list price was pennies shy of £100k for mine, but thankfully negotiated a massive discount, otherwise there was no way I could have afforded it. I have also turned off and on the stereo when grabbing/replacing my flask. Mine has the M Sport seats. Not sure whether they are much different to the standard ones you tested, but my wife finds them uncomfortable as a passenger. Found exactly the same issue with the gesture control and switched it off too as soon as I figured out how to do it! Fortunately I have the adaptive cruise control and lane keeping stuff, which really should come as standard on a car at this price. It is brilliant on long journeys. As is the Bowers & Wilkins sound system; by far the best I have ever heard in a car. Taking it steady also returns over 40mpg (UK gallons), which I think is phenomenal.

I agree it needs adaptive cruise control 😊

High end or big ticket purchases. Are a bit different. They don’t include features because people who shop in that price point are going to pay for them regardless. Extra money for the brand. On the lower end things are included to attract customers.

If the ACC and cup holders are so important to you, by a Toyota minivan. I own an M 850i GC and those things never even came to mind. Jesus, those people.

This is the perfect lawyer mobile. I can see lawyers frothing to buy this car. The phone location is a bad choice, I agree.

Boo Hoo….. my iPhone doesn’t fit in the charging cradle. Well maybe if you turned it sideways like I do with my iPhone X, it would fit just fine. If you have one of those almost mini iPad size phones, there’s charging ports in the console, so just get out one of your (many) charging cables, hook it up, and drop it in there. And finally, the cup holders are just too far away…. Oh how will I be able to survive such a design disaster! BMW designed a fabulous Autobahn Burner, not an ACURA MDX mommy-van! your local Hyundai dealer awaits your arrival….
