Alexa considered for future inclusion on the M2 Competition
Talked to BMW NA yesterday on two issues. I asked if they had a release date on ordering the m2 cs, they said not available at this time. The second question was if Alexa is being considered for inclusion on the car. They did state that by mid-year, that this feature should be available and they have a task force working on it, she contacted them to confirm. They once again, could not give a specific date on this inclusion. There have been other articles on this on numerous web sites that say the same thing. May be a nice feature for the car. Comments?

The best person to ask would be Alexa. If she's not being straight with you, check with Siri, and as a last resort, ask Bixby.

No offense but don't really care... I would have ordered it without iDrive if I could.

Having Alexa in the car would be so convenient...

I work in IT and don't use Siri, Alexa, Google, Cortana, etc. If you have to ask why it's already too late.

Missed that in the original post.
Agree with Tag though, I never use any of these assistants and I am not in IT.

No sir. just a dog, and he only pays attention to the sound of a Dorito's bag being opened.

Is this thread serious? Alexa in an M2?
OP should be buying a M5 or even a Lexus not an M2. I would purchase this M2 without idrive/navigation if I could. Last edited by chmura; 05-03-2018 at 01:22 PM.. |

Please type your response so it makes sense. Are you upset that they called and inquired about (as of now) the delivery date on a nonexistent vehicle? |

Did BMW figure out how to write usable software? I would be pleasantly surprised. All those iDrives I saw are plain garbage with lots of annoying small bugs. I'd rather use my cell phone instead.

2) You didn't answer my question. 3) What value did your original comment add? 3a) At least I pointed something out to others, so they don't make the same mistake this person did. K) Do you not understand an M2cs isn't a real thing? Maybe that's your confusion. It's not that big a deal... if you cannot have a laugh.. maybe you're tied a little too tight. |

Hahahaha I give up. EDIT///. I have to ask, what makes you think I cannot read and comprehend what is going on in this thread? I did not confuse two topics. Moreover, I only spoke about one. You seem to be grasping at straws. Maybe since you're (correct usage) newer here there's a couple things you should pickup on. Sarcasm is a fantastic thing. & Sometimes life is about the specifics. |
