I just checked the BMW website and this "BMW Performance" product is only available for the 1 series and 3 series.
Like Gene wrote, it will be interesting to see what this rep looks and how the fitment on a 5er would work. The one pictured simply won't fit -- its a different console etc

Yepp, it's not listed for the 5-series, but maybe it's the same fittings? How does the standard 3-series auto stick look like?

I didn't notice if the seller ever mention the shifter is made in Taiwan or China. Besides, not everything made in Taiwan or China is fake, according to Iceman. I happen to own many electronic gadgets, name brand clothing, PS3 that are made in China, and made in China only. It's just sad seeing people automatically assume it's defected, fake or just overall bad quality when they see "made in China". My 2 cents.
