not much difference. Any interior pictures of this ride? I have been thinking of upgrading to the pre LCI M5...

Sorry, only exterior pics. Might go back on the weekend to get a few more. They currently have this one and also an M5 pre-LCI in the showroom. The sales guy told me that he would be willing to give a huge discount on the pre-LCI to get it out of there.

why would they mess up the design of the bumper by putting those nonsense markers!

I guess I am going to have lot of orders for pre 08 m5 bumpers for the new LCI ones! j.k

Not as bad as on the US m-sport pack, but that front reflector is still so wrong. That said, I wouldn't say no to an M5 though

I'm not familiar with the US laws, but could you not put a black, white or tinted reflector on there?

Not a big fan of the orange markers on the standard car and although I would rather not have any at all I think these on the M5 are far better - seem a bit more integrated and in a logical place rather than stuck around the wheel arch.

By the way, are you going do fast always in an M5 that you do not need front fog lamps. I can't understand why such a required safety feather in some countries is omitted. I know the location is used for additional air cooling for the M5 but I would have thought BMW had the wit to design the fog lights in somewhere. :thumbsdown:
