Unfortunately warming up your car unattended is illegal in Colorado (and many other places, including Germany) and you can be ticketed for warming your car up unattended.

Also, check with your insurance carrier, I'm not sure but you may have some issues claiming full insurance coverage if you leave your car running unattended and it gets stolen.
Plus, having somebody hack that feature into a BMW that doesn't support it seems like a recipe for trouble, possibly bypassing the key encryption, splicing into the ignition wires, etc.
If it was me, I'd buy a sweater.
