It's infuriating when a large European car manufacturer prioritises a foreign market over Europe, isn't it.
Well, you are going to have to forgive them because it makes some sense when you think about it.
- they have very few engine choices in the US compared to Europe and that engine is really important to the US market to keep sales up.
- US initial demand for the 535i will be high so their may not be enough to go around (and the US need them more)
- it takes much longer to ship cars to the US so they need to give them to the US first.
- it's not as important an engine to the European market (in fact I think it will be a rare sight in many countries)... not that it isn't a wonderful engine
- the important engines to Europe are the performance diesels, the 2.0d (I'm surprised they didn't upgrade that one), and the smaller petrols

I saw no mention of a 535i in the various releases. Where is that information?

It was on a sales and marketing summary sheet from BMWCA that my sales rep showed me detailing the engines/body styles that will be available post facelift.

Lou, he's reluctant to give me a copy for job security reasons. 
Here are the other changes (Canadian Models).
550i comes standards as an ///MSport. Optional extra to delete ///MSport package for all season tires sand smaller rims.
Engines are confirmed as 528i, 535i and 550i. Models will be 528i, 528xi, 535i, 535xi and 535xiT. The 550i is carried over.
New colors are Deep Sea Blue, Space Grey and Platinum Grey. Gone are Mystic Blue, Olivine, Siver Grey and Amethyst.
New interior colors (Canadian models) are creme beige, natural brown and dark blue. New interior trim is dark bamboo (picture posted eralierin this thread) and diamond black (similar to the piano black finish in the E39).
SOP is early March. Delivery is mid to late April in Canada at the earliest, May likely for US ports.
No M5 touring models for North America. :thumbsdown:
