This is totally not worth arguing ... but I will join the argument
1. Please dont make the assumption that the mirror setup came from the specialist, whoever you are referring to (you trying to imply something with double quotes). Just an FYI, the mirror setup I was referring to came from one of the head instructor of BMW Performance Driving School, who had 30 years of road racing experience
2. Please dont reason out that the blind spot monitoring system (or whatever latest side-mirror innovation) are being offered by car companies just to cater the needs of people who use the "conventional mirror setup". It's just for ADDED convenience and safety...regardless of how you want to use your mirrors. period. Just like back up cameras, self parking cars, or front an bumper sensors
3. bosstones created the thread because of his issue with the blind spot on an X1 (which apparently doesnt come with a blind spot monitoring system). From what I see, people are posting here to solve the blind spot issue. Your posts doesnt seem to contribute anything to solve this
4. If you are an advocate of the conventional side mirror adjustment, feel free to start your own thread (or bump an existing one)
