There was an earlier post a few pages back regarding 2013 m5 electronic changes for July. Does this have something to do with it? Seems to coincide with the 5 series changes...

Here's the post...

So does anyone know the details behind this?

Per the Canadian M5 product planning guide material.

"Please note that BMW USA announced availability of the M5 Sedan in the U.S. market as a MY2013 as of July 2012 production. BMW Canada’s M5 production will follow the same model year schedule. Also note that there is a material change expected to the M5’s vehicle electronics as of July 2012 production. The change will not impact the output or performance of the M5. Additional details of the change will be available in the later part of Q2 2012. With the model year and vehicle electronic changes expected as of July 2012 production, please ensure your customers consider this information before placing an order between 03/12-06/12 production."

Thanks.... What in the world is it!

Some of you may be wondering if this will be available for the upcoming 2013 M5 which starts production in July. It is not.

It's no surprise that this new display won't be an option for the 2013 M5 as it did not appear in the 2013 Ordering Guide. BMW NA has confirmed this and says that it won't be available for the M5 in the immediate future.
