What are ceramic controls? And do you really miss Auto handbrake? I have it on my 535i and I use it maybe once every 3 months.
Beautiful car. Can't wait to take delivery of mine. Should be Saturday!

Ceramic controls are these: They are made out of jewellery grade ceramic. Looks fantastic, but also feels like a premium material, whereas our ones feel like plastic. They iDrive knob also seems more weighty in the ceramic version. Note also that the ceramic shifter has a leather gait.

How hard would it be to retro fit the Ceramic controls to the M5? What is the cost of the parts?I know someone did it on the 550 forum. You should be able to do everything but the shifter, Right?

wdimagineer did it on his 550. I don't know if he has done it on his M5 but I am keen to hear examples. I think it would go well with my Piano Black trim.
