BMW jumped the shark with subscriptions for heated seats. $18/month to keep your bum cozy warm did not sit well with car buyers. BMW dropped the subscription for heated seats.
If I had more money, and expected to live longer than I probably will, (at 78), I’d be buying a few older cars, fixing them up and storing them against need.
3-4 years ago I had occasion to rent a car; I needed an associates’ degree in computer science just to turn on the wipers. Never mind the airconditioning!
A monthly SUBSCRIPTION for heated car seats?? ROTFL
We have heated car seats in our 2015 Subaru Forester, but *no way* would we ever consider paying a monthly subscription for them.
(Not using the heated seats much these days in South Carolina anyway, lol.)
