Overall, the facelift looks very nice, inside and out. But they were not very aggressive on the changes, for example, as compared to the work done on the 7er.
Does it look like the new front fenders flare out more than the original?

Note also that the front bumper is fully new moded, not only the lower part!
The eyebrow goes also way behind the old one, maybe even replacing the old side leds.
There's also noticable changes to the rear bumber.
The "Euro" reflectors are slimmer.

I guess this is not only software update, so we the business navi users will not benefit from this, right?
When the E65 got facelifted, they also changed the software.
What are all the logos on the map shown on page 1?

hi people.
You are talking about the new sport gear. When i see the first picture of the interior, i see a diferent shift from this last pictures.
Maybe the first picture show us the new sport transmission, and this one, is only a "simple" steptronic!
if you look carefully, you will see a Black button beetwen the idrive knob and the shift, just in the frst picture, and not in the others!
what do you think???
