For the V36 sedan, when the car if off, there is no power going to the cigarette/accessory outlets. So, even if you have anything plugged in when the car is off, they will *not* drain your battery.

I've verified this when I installed my navi and was looking for a place to tap into for constant power. Those sockets only provide power when your car is in any mode other than off (e.g. accessory mode or engine on).
