Does anyone think that the new shifter is somewhat of a minor eyesore? They're big, and longer then they need to be. It screams "LOOK AT ME", and doesn't flow and match up nicely with the rest of the center dash.

This discussion is really neat because we are not all buying the sell of this "upgrade". That sexy face on the other side of the room is not necessarily better than the sexy face we came to the party with.

My Ride: MY07 525xi Silver Gray
Model Year: 2007
The lower center button cluster looks nice... is that look like an in-dash CD changer (seems to be 8 instead of 6) also? 
Hope the new steering wheel (at least the paddles) will work w/ prior model.

Ahh after looking on it further you'er right, but the paddle shift seems to have a leather insert or something...

The steering wheel is the same as on my 2007 if that is any help.

I meant the steering wheel mounted paddle shifter for the SMG model on this picture.

Actually this thread has pix of two different steering wheels for the "refresh". Which is it?
