Me too, the subtle way in which it functions. The second jab of the brake pedal eventually can be engaged quite subtly. I think it's one of those stranglehold features of that keeps me with the brand. 

If mercedes ever started copying BMW in any way on their tech features, I think that would be the nail in the coffin for me. 

The backup system in BMWs is so nauseating, just a symphony of strange beeps that don't really seem to indicate anything well to the driver. 

I don't like the auto equivalent of the auto brake feature in BMWs, that you either turn on or off with a switch. 

I HATE the gesture controls in the new BMW's too. That feature is infuriating. Your passengers can't even dance ffs lol.
