It's dated 10 July and it gives specific months for elements of the system that are being implemented later.

That, together with the fact that they are actually installing the new system from July (in the USA) leaves UK buyers nowhere.

It would be interesting to know what Jason's source was for the "global" rollout schedule on this forum. I'm sure he passed on the information in good faith but who fed him with it?

Week 36 build (September 3rd) is when the upgraded software is installed in UK F10s according to my dealer. I trust him, he's a salesman

If that's the week when your car goes into production then we'll share the same luck.

Not to be repetitive, but I thought a few Americans were going to be picking up their F10's this week to confirm the updated navigation. I am holding off on my order until I have 100% confirmation. Anyone....

I won't believe it until I hear it from Alan - I feel like I have been living vicariously through him regarding the 2013 F10.

Having dubbed this fiasco "NavigationGate," I will believe it when I see an image/video. For all I know, Stonehauler and TUDM777 have the old nav, but are so excited about picking up their new F10, are confused and think it is the new one.

How do you know that they have the old nav, none of them have posted any pictures yet, The pictures posted by Canadian member who picked up his F 10 earlier were consistent with new nav, wondering about the source of your information.

The the thumbnails in this link by YYZ 535 guy. Its definitely the new nav. I have an 11 X5 and screen shot looks very different.

At this point its about 99.99% positive for me that north american F10 have the new Nav. Just wish those guys would take some pictures or videos to show it off to finally end ANY speculation.

I sat in a couple of unlocked 2013 f10s in Atlanta yesterday and they all had the new I drive interface. It's faster and just more pleasant to see and use.

Believe me I want to but fucking BMW is taking their sweet ass time delaying my car week after week. First it's the EPA hold and now it's waiting for the VPC to do what they do and release my car. It finally made it on the truck today but not at the dealer yet even though it's only 1.5 hours away. The earliest I could pick up my car now is Tuesday but I've heard that crap before so I'm not holding my breath. All this excitement for the F10 is all gone for me at this point and I just want to get this shit over with. sigh.....
