Convenience Package vs Comfort Access
I'm curious about what the opinions of people who have the ZCV convenience package are - is it worth it over CA only? I like CA but I'm not sure that soft close auto doors and a power tailgate are really features I'd need or use much.
Nevertheless, I almost didn't get CA on my first car (seemed useless) and now I love it. I don't want to miss out on a really nice feature that I might like more than I thought. Thoughts? |

I got CA, did not take the whole package. From what I understand, CA might be a bit of a "waste" a well. Keyless start is apparently standard now. So all CA gets you is keyless door opening.

Thanks for the replies, guys.
Very interesting, are you sure about that? If that's the case then I probably won't get CA at all. |

Where did you hear that "keyless start" is standard on the F10? I've not heard that before.
Keyless unlock is clearly a separate Priority One option (322) "Comfort Access keyless entry." |

As for soft close doors, they're not a necessity, but can be helpful if you have young kids. And power tailgate seems like a waste. Must be targeted toward senior citizens. You could make an argument on a minivan or SUV which has a large tailgate.

I debated on this point for a while and ended up getting the convenience package. Probably not worth it but the wife liked it...
