You live out in the countryside of Florida. Where are you going where power folding mirrors are a legit necessity? Lol.
Im in center city Philly with arguably some of the tightest, oldest little streets in all of America and Im rarely in a situation where the power folding mirrors on my car would make a difference. And I have a single car garage here that is less than the standard door width and still have plenty of room where folded mirrors wouldn't make a difference.
For me it's the wing cameras. Couldnt have another DD without it here as I can get down some of those streets without curbing a wheel or parallel parking when out.

The only time I ever fold the power mirrors is when going through the carwash, and an IS isn't a big car. I also drove cars without power folding mirrors, or mirrors that folded at all for many years. I want that feature too, but I certainly wouldn't not buy a special V8 IS because it didnt have power folding mirrors. That awesome V8 trumps the mirrors.

I don't care much about the PMC edition (the name is ridiculous), but the Type-S is an awesome car. Got my buddy a good deal on a Pearl White 2022 for slightly under sticker. He recently passed 10,000 miles so we took it up to Sonoma Raceway on a track day maybe 2-3 months ago and man the SH-AWD is superb

Well, of course. Its a proper RWD layout BMW sport sedan, and much more expensive, a Type S Performance is completely loaded where an M340i AWD starts, to be comparable an M340i has to be optioned ~$64k.

I've not used any of mine since then though, I honestly have to remind myself to use them from time to time to make sure they get to move. Normally I'm parked in a way that allows full door swing

What data in a car is so important that you have to constantly monitor it? Fighter jet yes, car why? I've used HUD in moms LC500 and bros palisade, i just turn them off when I drive them, I dont see the appeal especially when i can see my speed in peripheral vision on a digital cluster/speedometer.
