Upgraded Brakes Revealed For Next Gen BMW G30 5 Series

First close up definitive Spy Shots positively ID'ing 4 Piston Fixed Aluminum Front Calipers as standard for the new/next gen G30 5 Series vs the current model F10 5 Series Single Piston Sliding Front Caliper. This car has been shot countless times... And no publication/Spyshooter has positively identified the major new brake upgrade for the G30 5 Series. Always stick with PalBay SpyShots for the most detailed Spyshot analysis period. Thanks. PalBay

How do you know that this test car is a base model car and not a M550i with upgraded brakes or something?

Because every G30 Spyshot since it hit the road publicly testing had 4 Piston Fixed Front Brake Calipers...I'm not going to do deep Spyshot Analysis on other Spyshooters shots....they need to do their job...These shots were shot by me. Regards

Any G30 with MSport package can get the MSport brakes. I have them on my 530e.

No - check the dates on the first post. Someone is reading up on very old threads.

Sadly, it is just cleverly disguised link spam.

Annoying. Why is someone bringing up an old post. Should be locked down.
