Key FOB msport color?

jctang · 04-17-2017, 10:38 AM

I have a '16 535i msport and received the key fob all the way to the right in the photo (black with no color accents). My friends who have purchased bmw with msport all have received the key to the left (black with blue color accent), but none of them are 5 series. I keep reading that the blue color accent is for bmws with msport. Should the dealer have given me a black key fob with blue accents, or do the 5 series not get the color accents? Thanks in advance!

I had a F31 M Sport, blue line on the keys.
I now have a F11 M Sport, black line on the keys.

Mine's the black one.

My car is in for service and have been given a 2 series and that has the blue fob.

The best story here would be if OPs car has keyless access and the key stays in the pocket all the time and the only time he takes it out is to put into some tray at home.

Too much money here.

All those keys are ugly. Mine's also the lame black one on the right in the OP.

The silver/black one on my mom's '16 X5 M-sport is the one to have with the M tri-colors on the side. That one's pimp

Yes have that on our X1 and it is very nice, especially with the leather covers that we have on our keys...

I never actually use that. Comfort access is easy enough. why put the effort to pull it out of my pocket

you can always buy some vinyl and wrap it.

Nice! It's the same style we have on the X1 but we have one in mocha to match the interior and one in tan that I use...

I agree --- also, is it supposed to look like it is a big bulge in the pocket?

Is that a mouse in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?
