Hey guys, good news, i have gotten word from my SA, that the 2005 productions model has officially ENDED, and the 2006 has officially begun production, if i order my car now, i will get the new engine according to him , And he says that the Active Steerings is still part of the Sport Package. He also said he does not know exactly about the Nasca Leather as of yet, and will keep me updated on that. so i will do the same for you guys.

[/quote]Very cool, btw, this is only if you order it to be produced from the factory after your order. . not one thats on the lot or already on their way here, i know that's probably obvious but i figured i'd say it anyway

My Ride: G30 M550i
Model Year: 2018
Anyone else feel that this is a bit premature for 2006 US models? I would have thought that the 2005 production run would run at least for a few more months.
(I think in Europe they count model years differently. Maybe this information isn't true for the US market?)

If major things like engines change there is no difference, the new model year starts on 1 January
