Climate Windscreen and Other Stuff

Hi enthusiasts!

Holler from Down Under. Just got my 2009 E90 320d the other week and absolutely love it! The more I get to know the more I want to know and that's what brought me here.

Many of the options I opted for aren't obvious to me (especially as a n00b) so I was wondering if you guy's might be able to tell me more.

Climate comfort windscreen is one of these. I read that it should have a green stripe across the top and mine does not. Should I be worried? Has the green stripe been phased out? Is it an Australia thing?

Secondly, the BMW tech guide says that the new cars use regenerative braking. Is this true? Especially in Australia.

What other cool stuff should I play with hahaha? Any cool gizmos I should add to my car?

The other options I have include Innovations Pack (with Pro Nav and Xenons+High Beam Assist), Memory Seats, Electric Mirrors, Active Steering, Comfort Access

G-Day mate. I heard that whatever destination you put into the Aussie Nav system, it takes you to a liquor store

the owner's manual that you got with your car explains all the cool features in it.

Hahaha... can't say for sure. I've only ever tried to go to liquor stores.

Is it true that USA Nav takes you to the nearest fast food outlet?

In Ohio and Pennsylvania it takes you to the drive-through liquor store. Kinda the same.
