I wish it was available in the US, as the decision would be a no brainer for me too. Man, why does BMW deny us?

Having M-sport package only adds weight to the car.

So what's your point?
If you go by that you'll probably end up with a fiat stilo or something like that, eh? :-D

Thanks for your opinion though :-)

Nope. All parts of this kit replace other parts.

Maybe insignificantly because M-kit bumpers are higher and thicker

The E60 facelift is due in the next year or 2, and the bumpers will probably be changed significantly.

If you get the MSports pack your car wont look as dated against the facelift. I say this because I don't think BMW will release 2 different MSports packs for the E60. Of course I could be wrong
