B&O retrofit possibilities
Featured on BIMMERPOST.com I same to be unfortunate with my BMW orders since usually once I order and they deliver, there seem to be a much desirable option missing in my car. anyhoo, I recieved my car back in March and now they announced B&O system for M5 & 5 series in general. What are my chanced being able to retrofit that system ? Anyone knows ? specially dealers ? My dealer said its almost not possible but they are not sure. |

So do the TCO of owning your car for the next 3 years vs. buying a new one and owning that for 3 years. I reckon you will be better off buying a new one since the resale on these cars is very good right now because of the short supply.

SayyaaF, I listened to the B&O System in a 6-Series and didn't think it was worth the price of the option. http://f10.m5post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=685197
For the money, you could purchase an absolutely stellar after-market system that would plug right into the BMW iDrive system. |

Thanks guys, its really difficult to get a proper job around me here for anything involving new BMWs. I wouldn't trust them touching the car circuitry or anything.
My best bits is to get the dealer confirm retrofit for a reasonable price, or as some said, I might just live with it. |

Everyone has a different ear for
What sounds good. Go down to an aftermarket stereo dealer and just have a listen. They can make a system for you that will give you the best sound possible from the space available and type of music you like. |
