The F15 looks much more cleaner and less bulky (see vents/dash - uses minimal room) and the looks like there's an improvement on materials.

As for the iDrive screen, again I know a lot of people don't like it but in terms of design, it makes a significant difference to the feel of the cabin - when you sit in the F30, it just feels there's more space; there's this feel of "openness" that the double hump in the E9X just doesn't provide.
Having owned two "double hump" cars... I think that was one of the nicest dash designs by any manufacturer - it looks so architectural in nature. The iPad sticking out of the dash look is growing on me, though.
