Maybe it's because of the production slots allotted to Scandinavian countries?

Its info from BMW to the norwegian dealerships. Could not be more dissapointed. The only change in july is the power tailgate comes as standard on the touring and you can order the new inst.panel.

This is just weird, I feel thats its logical to bump the HP on the 535 to 325-340 hp , Why would 550 need a bump in HP.
I guess they will do that for the official LCI . Steve Jobbs fucked up everyone before he passed away.

No, don't think the F10 will get the TU version of the V8 engine.

Not for now. Don't be surprised to see it for the F10 LCI / facelift / refresh due in a year or so.

I have a 530d on order in the UK. Dealer believes delivery will be early August (but not confirmed) and he confirmed that this will be a 2013 model and part number on the order is for new sat nav.

Alright, so I have called three dealerships in Florida and one in New York. NONE could confirm the new iDrive/Navi OR the MFID in any US 2013 F10. What gives?

Tell them to look at Product Planning & Strategy Bulletin bulletin #: B-1-0511-12-All-02 July Changes (released May 14, 2012).

It details July production changes and states that one of the changes includes (direct quote):
Quote:
Navigation system updates (609)

Starting as of July 2012 production, the next generation Navigation Professional system (609) will be available on the 5 Series Sedan, 5 Series Gran Turismo, 7 Series Sedan and ActiveHybrid 3.

Just like u cannot get passive M-sport suspension or M-steering wheel as standalone on UK SE-spec cars.
You should check this. The new UK price list (and description) say the same thing but when the dealer ran it, the MFID throws out the HUD.

As rhinosaur stated, no more 6FL, now included with Nav.
I have a copy of the internal UK price list from my dealer and as I have said before, it says the MFID is an option with the Sat Nav Plus ie with HUD, but when the dealer ran it on his internal system, the MFID kicked out the HUD. I hope I'm wrong as I would (sort of) like it on my 530d on order for August delivery, but the dealer says no

So BMW Product Team have confirmed that you can't have the Multifunctional Display and the HUD together and that all the BMW information that says you can is wrong!

That is not the case in Germany. My car is ordered with HUD and MFID. It will be produced and delivered in September and my dealer confirmed today that not only will it bring the MFID but it will also have the upgraded iDrive/Nav Pro.

As for BMW Apps, it is also now included in my spec. For those who don't know, one month ago the official configuration software that dealers use to specify and order cars in Germany was forcing TV Functionality if you wanted Apps. It was a glitch and therefore today I have added Apps to the spec (with no TV Functionality).

This is a UK specific marketing arrangement, just like M-sport suspension not available on the SE.

I'm new to this forum, I live in Brazil and I just read this thread two days ago. I already have my F10 535 on order since may 28th. and its scheduled for production on week 30 (23-29 July). My order was based on May 2012 options list which included 6WA option and HUD.. after reading this thread about the 6WB i called my dealer and he send me new list for July 2012 and it include both options 6WA - 6WB and both can be ordered with HUD.. in fact HUD (610) only come with option 6WA or 6WB .

Price for 6WB alone is 454 Euro, in combination with 610 go down to 227 Euro.

I asked the dealer to check with BMW if I can replace 6WA with 6WB in my order, I have to wait the reply since my request is very late.

Ive got some new and different information. I had ordered Professional Media Package with 6WA in early June when 6WB was not available yet. I did ask for 6WB later, bt was too late and car was already in build.

I was just having a word with the BMW Parklane, London dealership who said th we were not able to add 6WB and even if u did want to, you would have to go Business Media Package. That is super weird.
