How would you rank the importance of these packages
I have the features itemized below as must gets on my M4. I just cant decide if its worth it to get the Executive package, lighting package, or Drivers assistance plus package. Out of these three packages which one or two are the most important packages and why for daily driving? I would love to see feedback because these three options add up to to $7800 extra and I dont know which ones I may regret not getting if I dont add it now. I know the simple solution is to add all three but some just dont seem worth the money and since I cant physically see the cars with these packages i wanted feedback. Thanks

Be aware that the Driver Assistance Plus automatically adds the Executive Package. So this will not be the "1 out of 3" option but here you'd have to take two.

The Exec Pkg is overpriced, but does include some nice features. From what I've read about the lighting package isn't worth it. The LED lighting isn't miles ahead of the stock Xenons, and American cars don't get the cool headlight technology that is offered in Europe.

the only one I would consider is exec. I think drivers assistance is ridiculous and useless, as well as the LED package. although, I think the LED housings look like halogen housings which is why I don't like them
personally I passed on all of those 3 packages as they weren't worth it for me. the only thing I really wanted was HUD, and to me its not worth the money I also would do more research to understand what enhanced USB is before paying for it. the standard car has streaming audio Bluetooth standard.

To me the exec package is a must to others it isnt. I love HUD, can't live without comfort access, pdc, and rear view camera. The included leather seats is nice as well..
Driver Assistance Plus and Lighting package I passed on. The lighting package certainly makes the lights look cooler but thats it ....2k for that is pretty insane to me.

I really want this lighting Package, LEDs look much nicer than the Bi Xenons but 2K is just too much. As for Driver assistance, I do not see the need for it. Exec package has enough assist features.

Optional packages
Exec (for the HUD, Comfort Access & leather) Lighting (not a great value, but LEDs are the future) & surround cameras for me.

What do you guys think about adaptive suspension? I thought it was a must-have option as well. I do not plan on upgrading my suspension system later on but might get spacers to lower the ride height?
