Is your car ceramic coated? Did you get extended warranty?

I would vote for a bit less steering assist.

They work fine.

I really love the massaging seats. Turning on the heat with the massaging on full feels great on my lower back. My wife loves it too.

I must say I prefer the pre-facelift headlights. Looks a little Audi to me now!

Any advice where can I get these 2021 G30 LCI parts? I like the front carbon lips.

Cheers!

Kinda late to the party

Sorry for the late comment on this thread, but I've been away on a misguided AMG sabbatical, followed by a brief F-150 stopover. Has anyone seen or heard when they may be making some interior changes to come more in line with the rest of the Series'?

Won't be until the next 5, so 2023 at the earliest I'm afraid

When will a new 5 Series model be announced? Will it be in October 22 for sales starting in 23 or an announcement in summer/autumn 23 for sales at the end of that year?

I'm scheduled to change cars in Jan 22 so don't want to hook myself into a 3-year deal if the car is going to be changed barely a year in.

Should be announced sometime during summer of 2023, and available a few months later.

Yeap. The 5er has a 6 year produxtion cycle as most current BMWs do. Current 7th generation 2017-2023 and expect the 8th generation to run from 2024-2030 with the LCI introduced for the 2028 model year.

Hopefully by March you’ll have a lot of G60 details the help guide your decision. Generally, the last MY is the most stable compared to the first year of a new platform. But the G60 will have a lot of attractive additions.

just ordered the MY23 530e. we're 2nd in line for new allocations releasing in 2 weeks at our high-volume dealership. she didn't want to be a guinea pig with the first G60 iterations. "let them work out the kinks first."

only thing missing is the Parking Assistance package which we're hoping will come back before hitting 150 status. I did a search and couldn't find any threads on this. got any ideas or links to them?

The rear bumper cover is slightly deeper now on the LCI
