I had to look up a picture of a 745 to see what he was talking about and there are actually two lights on the trunk lid plus a rear window brake light mounted lower than the 545. I don't think the trunk lid lights on the 745 are brake lights. The guy probably does not know what is talking about. There was a post by E60525d that list many changes for week 9 production. The forum title is "E60 changes." E60525d did not mention the brake and tail light changes, although week 9 as referenced would be a 2005 model and not 2006. I hope the changes he/she mentioned are for the US bound model as I will surely have to get the optional 19" wheels.

That would be a HUGE change to the look!!!!! That would suck. well seems like week 9... march build 525 and 530s WILL be MY06s STUPID BMW!

I don't think this change would occur during the week 9 build, if ever. Supposedly it would be model year '06 and not available until fall. I just read in another forum (M3 vs 545 or something like that, I don't know how to link to it) that a 550 replaces the 545 in the fall. Has anyone else heard this from a source other than this forum?
