With the f30 headlights touching the kidneys as well as the upcoming x5, and 4er, I figured the f10 would get a similar treatment at refresh...

Would have loved to have the LED headlights on my M5. Have them on the X6 and love them. Oh well. I see an M6GC in my future anyway. Maybe the GC refresh, whatever that may entail.
All good.

thats the trick... the current gen looks amazing. just needs more power, better steering. But its the refresh that makes people buy again, so they have to change look.
I was happy to see the z4 wasn't changed as much as I thought it might look... |

Isn't it great when you know that the F10 that you are driving now has shitty steering feel (and acknowledged by BMW!) and probably have to live with it unless you change to the LCI?
Thanks BMW. Last edited by Douggie; 01-28-2013 at 12:41 AM.. |

I think it will have upgraded steering wheel as well as possibly finally having the active side bolsters...wishful thinking maybe?

F10 has shitty steering (seemly got worse after software update), The auto headlights come on in broad daylight - everyday Auto Start/Stop stalls the car and puts the parking break on half the time The key won't start the car for 30 seconds if I use the key to open the trunk first The air ducts in luxury seating package make the driver's seat squeak The plastic trim below the radio knobs isn't secured and wiggles when I press radio buttons The media doc for the iPhone stops responding (weekly) and needs to be removed to get working again The transmission shifts are way too rough in Sport / Normal mode. |

The car has lost its edge. Yes, its sells like hot cakes, but the reality is unless you want M sport, its not nearly as sporty as the E60 was in its hey day. The only thing I am concerned about is the redesign of the front and rear fascia. Its perfect in my eyes. It does make me think if there were a way to equip the car with sport steering wheel, black headliner, sport seats and comfort seats i'd order now regardless of LED headlights ect. But the steering... if its being reengineered to be sportier and more communicative... well then we have to wait for that alone. The 6 series GT is getting praise for being what the 5 series should have been at the get go. |

Yes...I am very well aware that there is no active side bolsters on the F10 M5. However, we are talking about changes for the LCI and I believe this could be one of those changes that we will see in the F10 LCI M5
