M550d Lci

perisak · 06-30-2013, 03:57 AM

Does anyone know what the LCI changes are on the M550d? I can see that the power is the same. Outer design probably the same. Same changes on the interior as other 5 series. But what about the steering?

Does anyone know if there will be an m650d GC any time soon?

There's not all that much according to a quick chat with my dealer; front foglights I think he said, slightly redesigned iDrive controller knob. Rather made me feel glad I didn't wait for the LCI variant.

No foglights on the M550d, or any of the other M Performance models I think.

Fog lights are standard on LCI MSports in the UK.

I don't know if and how the steering on the x-drive models has changed as mine is a RWD. But steering slightly approved; interior main difference are the Idrive controller with touch and new M-sport steering wheel.
Outside main change is that you can order LED headlights. I like them a lot!

Yes, but no M550d in the UK, right?

Not sure, I've not seen one so presume you're right. 550d, must be a monster, all those torques!!!

You might be able to get one but it'll be a left hand drive only....

Drive a 535d RWD with IAS and you will forget the 550 within two corners!
