Finally an LSD!
My lease is up in 9 months. This news has swayed me back to yet another 5-series. FWIW, ID7 feels like a step backwards from ID6. |

The other day I activated voice control and said "I am cold!". The system responded, "Please Use ventilation manual controls". Good answer BMW!

I will wait for ID8 which should be coming up in 2 or so years from now. ID7 looks good on paper but poorly executed and tested by the BMW development group in Chicago.

Although I know all too well that trying keep up with the latest an the greatest is extremely expensive, I wish I had waited a few more months with the ordering of my M550i. I could not care less about the 2020 model technology/convenience upgrades, it is the new 523 HP engine that causes regrets.

Engineering, planning, etc. for iDrive is mostly done out of HQ and BMW Car IT group in Munich and Ulm, Germany. Or do you have info that says otherwise? I've also heard BMW has a small office in Silicon Valley focused on next gen autonomous driving. The engineering done in SV complements what they're working on at HQ development studio. BMW recognizes there's incredible talent in SV they shouldn't ignore.

Are there any US dealer reps on this forum? Want to confirm that Dynamic Dampers can still be ordered with My2020 540i x-Drive, as a stand-alone option ($700). Online configurator doesn't show it (only for 530i and 530e), but it is still listed in the latest ordering guide for 540i.
