Even after seven full days behind the wheel of BMW's 650i Cabriolet - it still felt special to get inside. A swoopy and elegant interior molds around your body, wrapping you in modern luxury. Illuminated kick plates remind you of the top-shelf quality you're about to enjoy.
A new high resolution info-tainment screen juts out from the middle of the dash. In many ways a center piece, all on-board systems can be manipulated through this screen. A couple of passengers asked me to retract the screen and twisted their face with confusion when I replied that it wasn't possible. They looked at me as if I was playing some kind of prank, and looked at the car as if it was some dust-covered antique. Of course, my passengers missed the point BMW was trying to make when they mounted this screen, permanently and prominently, in the first place. The screen symbolizes BMW's move toward high tech features, and the company's love affair with electronics. It was intended to be as much an 'electronic sculpture' as it was a computer screen. Take it for what you will.
