Given the security holes in cars that have been coming to light, I'd really want to get a car that is not connected to the cellular network at all. Even wifi capability is risky. Does anyone know if all 2 series cars are internet connected or if only certain options have wireless hardware installed?
Can you rip out any wireless modules if they are there?
If there are wireless computers on board I sure hope they aren't networked to the ECU and other drive control computers.
The only secure computer is an unplugged one and there really is no "good" reason an entire car needs to be connected to the internet. The damage that can be done with a hacked car is so much more imminent than what can be done with a hacked phone or computer, especially with cars that have lane/parking assist, collision avoidance, and adaptive cruise control. They just need a brain to be fully self driving and out of your control.

Models without wireless internet?
