Well I confirmed today that I can order a R6 525i and it is confirmed as being MY2006. At the dealership she showed me the BMW guide that has it labeled that way, and the guide she has was dated 01/06/05. She did say I can order it now however the car would not get here until May at the earliest. That sucks!


Peace

Generally in the States, it will mean a new MY because of certification costs.

I don't think BMW will tell anyone, or advertise, the new engines as MY06.
