According to the pictures if you choose not to buy one of lines (modern, luxury or M sport) you don't get fog lights?!?!

Am I right???

I think they come as packaged with the LEDs, so if you opt not to have LEDs you will get xenons and probably no fogs.

Looks like you need a Line OR LED headlights to get LED foglights.

What I'm not sure of, is if that means non-Line/non-LED headlight cars won't get foglights at all, or if they'll get non-LED foglights.

JustinGTP · 05-23-2013, 01:52 PM

I still want to know where the front turn signals are.

LED lights will be available as as separate option (if you have not already chosen Adaptive LED Light either part of line or as an option). The option code for Front Fog LED Lights is 5A1. There are no Halogen Fog Lights anymore….

If you look at the ordering guide, there is a N/C "line badge delete" option.

I agree, that is all that matters. The pre-lci is a bad azz looking car

On the side profile they say the car has "changed lines" when we all know the actual design lines are identical. Then, the next frame is of the grille where he says it has "larger kidney grilles". WTF? They're identical in shape with less slats.

R N M · 05-30-2013, 08:51 PM

Is it possible to retrofit the LED fogs into the pre-LCI cars?

NickeL · 05-31-2013, 03:10 AM

Got the pricelist for Sweden yesterday, apparently it's the non-adaptive xenons that are standard here. Also, Nappa leather is not included with the lines, and the sports leather steeringwheel isn't included in the Modern line.

hio · 06-04-2013, 04:12 PM

Yes Xenon lights and Comfort pkg are standard in Sweden, and you can´t have M-sport steering Wheel if you choose any line as Modern or Luxury.

The comfortpackage is standard? Since it said 0 SEK I assumed it was a misprint. That's nice.
Yeah, it's the "standard" sports steering wheel you can choose (fine by me since I dislike the look of the new M wheel).

How does US Pricing works ? I see for example the 535i costs 56.025 USD, is that the end price US customers pay for a standard 535i? Or do I need to take additional taxes in to account ?
I'm asking this because in Brussels consumers pay 56.050 EUR for standard 535i, which is converted to USD (let's say 1 EUR = 1,3 USD average rate in 2013) 72.865 USD. Am I overlooking something? Or is the same car about 17.000 dollars cheaper across the ocean ?

The link is not working and the PDF appears to be damaged.

In other news, the 550xi SOP is now August and only 200 or so will be made in the first month and just slightly more in September.

We don't have a VAT baked into the price. Each state/county/municipality has their own tax rate, so someone in NYC would pay more than someone in Florida. My 535d that I ordered had a sale price of $64K, + 6.5% state (FL) sales tax = $68160. The same car in NYC would be $69680.
