Very nice car and excellent photos.
I am two weeks away from picking up mine. After seeing your photos I am certain I made the right choice of vehicle: 2014 LCI CP 601, B&O, Exec/Premium Package. However, I took a more conservative route on colours. SG, Blk. In hindsight I should have gone with the SO interior. Last edited by Just_Joe_M5; 08-11-2013 at 07:20 PM.. |

Your color combination is absolutely gorgeous. It's sooooooooooooooo beautiful!
Congratulations! Your car will NOT blend in with all of the "me too" cars on the road. |

uhn, RPI and Niko - I've been following the side bolster issue as closely as you've been. But I think if you read closely, you may believe BMW on this one.
Don't get me wrong, I think BMW f'ed up with the initial advertising of 20-way seats that ended up being 18-way without the adjustable side bolster. Then - eventually - the DOT story came out. But it rings true to me due the way BMW has fitted the side bolsters in the North American LCI. The new bolsters are not like the ones that we had in our E60s or like the ones in the current 6ers. They are not mechanical. They're pneumatic (which is especially too bad since I'll bet they've lost the feature of "opening up" when you open the front door). But my point is that if BMW had to design and install a whole new type of adjustable side bolster, they must have had a real - not fake - problem with the original F10s. Just my thought and my $0.02.

I wish they were water powered. I'd fill my bolsters up with Root Beer and connect a straw system so that when ever I wanted Root Beer I could have some while driving.

not sure but the design looks identical to the design in my current non LCI, even the man page is the same. they work ok but are not as good as the E60 ones.
