I tried looking for collaborating evidence online, and so far only found this on BMW's website:
> To celebrate the partnership with Spider-Man™: Brand New Day, BMW has a special surprise for its drivers. The Spider-Man™ Animation will be available (in participating markets) to all customers with suitably equipped vehicles from 27 July to 10 August. Starting the car brings up a special banner in the Control Display. Clicking on it then activates the Spider-Man™ animation, comprising a full-screen festive animation in the Control Display with aptly chosen backing music and an accompanying light show courtesy of the ambient lighting system. These festive animations will be available in more than 70 countries worldwide for vehicles equipped with the relevant optional equipment and BMW Operating System 7, 8, 8.5, 9 or BMW Operating System X, as well as a production date after 7/2020.
Can you get one that displays ads on the exterior? That way you can be like the taxis and buses running around town! I'm sure the chick's will think that is cool.
Paying a premium for a not-premium experience haha. I love BMW for its' design world contributions, but this is more anti-consumer behavior from the company that popularized melting plastic parts in your engine.
I think the only way vendors will learn that this is not acceptable is people not buying their stuff any more.
In my opinion Windows has pushed "slop" too far and is now experiencing lowering market share and I really hope this happens to all the companies trying a B055man69 move[1] on their customers.

I have to think the original founding crew would like to punch someone in the mouth, if they could see this.
I guess the heated seat subscription was the canary in the coal mine.
My “ultimate driving experience” is ad free.
This occurs in YOUR car!?! WTF That is a great reason to never buy an BMW. Thanks for the warning.

Maybe if they pay the driver, but it seems like they'll be paying BMW instead.

before it was Audi right ?
My 99 manual A4 is looking better all the time. Turns out more reliable too.
