Btw, this is how Tesla works. Perhaps you’ve heard of them? They seem to be doing ok with it.
oh i didn't miss the point.. this is a way for BMW to continue to suck money out of people even on the used market... instead of a used car buyer working with the dealer on a car and negotiating a price based on features that car already has they will need to enter into a subscription plan.. so it'll be base price of the used car + even more money...
