im not looking for explanations for the issue, its just an dumb move by BMW to start with a 70amp and now they are up to 92 or 105's.

none of the Japanese cars do this, I guess thats a plus on their side.

They have made cars forever, they have know how much juice a optioned 5 will use.

After 2011/2012, they should of bumped it up in the factories, but they wont, because a battery is a non warrantied item.

dollars, thats all it is. They know 90% of people will put up with it.
