I know it could be shooting yourself in the foot but anything that prevents the "crash for cash" scandal we have in the UK HAS to be a good thing.

Several friends/family members of mine have been screwed by liars doing illegal turns or slamming their brakes for NO REASON at all, plus I've never been in an accident that was my fault so the drive recorder would've an instant checkbox for me when we ordered our G05!

I disagree. I'm 49 and I love this sort of tech. It could be especially useful in the event of an accident. Look at what Tesla is doing with their many exterior cameras... it has caught quite a few vandals trying to deface vehicles. I don't see myself using the drive recorder to record my amazing driving skills and then post to YouTube

Does anyone know what is included in the "BMW Individual high-gloss Shadow Line trim with extended features"?
Will this be providing BMW black grill / black exhaust pipes / black window trim and more? referring to https://www.bmw-m.com/en/topics/maga...clusivity.html for M4 it gives black badging even? |

I asked dealer and indeed it would mean blacking out "more" than just the window trim so I've added this option, drive recorder and the alcantara anthracite headliner

Still no word (from what I can tell) on x5 45e release date in USA? The press release refers to August but I suspect that is not the US market... Anybody have any info?

That is the best color combo I have seen yet. Seems a different blue then I have seen locally - maybe lighting.

The one thing I am not crazy about (maybe just not used to yet) is the new grill - this black seems to tame the effect a little.

...The M50i could be a 2 year wait since they didn't introduce it as a future release??...[/QUOTE]
Fear not...the new 523hp V8 is coming. The first BMW X vehicle to get it will be the new G06 BMW X6 M50i which will be unveiled in a couple of months. After the G06 X6 launch, this engine will then be introduced on both the X5 & X7.[/QUOTE] Do you have any info on the 2020 X6 m50i I got my eye on that. |

In the X7 2020 ordering and pricing guide I noticed it says manual rear sunshades. Are the motorized ones no longer available?

I believe I saw the recorder and skylight led roof in the exec package but could not find them as sep options.
