I wish there was a way to get the Icon Adaptive LED headlights without having to order the Executive Package.

The base headlights are LED and the optional headlights are Laser, no "icon"

Yup, back when the F8x first came out, the lighting package was separate from the exec. package, which I very much preferred.

I agree with the other guys, the better looking Icon lights are the only single thing in Exec I want and I'm not about to pay $3,000 to have them along with a bunch of stuff I'd never use. I hate HUD and especially hate how ugly it makes the top of the dash + it creates more reflections on the windshield on sunny days, will never use remote engine start or heated steering wheel, power tailgate is unnecessary, and they can keep their slow wireless charging and gesture control. This is 100% personal preference, if people want some or all of those things I think the $3,000 price is fair for all of that. Aside from this, the pricing for base price is spot-on to where M3s have always been adjusted for inflation and all of the options and packages are priced well in my opinion. |

more reasonable pricing than I thought and lots included. If you consider the AT is included (DCT was a ~3k option before) and it's the competition model. Too bad the really nice paint options are so expensive.
Anyone know what 'M Drive Professional' is? |

Over the years, were the first batches of new model Ms sold right at MSRP, marked up, or with some discount, generally speaking?

All of the above. It is really region specific. Most usual cases of markups will be in SoCal. However, most overall cases are cars been sold at msrp. And a very small cases of new cars are sold with a slight discount. Discounts range from 1% to maybe 3% early on if you have done a lot of business with the dealer

Making its debut is new optional M Drive Professional, which has been developed specifically for track driving. This new option helps the driver to make consistent progress in pursuit of the ideal line and the perfect lap. Features include the M Drift Analyzer which records the duration, distance covered, line and angle of a drift with a rating shown on the Control Display. Other functions include the M Laptimer, which provides a comprehensive amount of performance information, shown on both the optional Head-Up display and in the instrument cluster, beyond just recording lap times. As well as checking their current lap time, the driver can also keep a constant eye on how much quicker or slower they are than their fastest lap of the current session. The Control Display shows the number of laps completed so far, the distance covered and the duration of the driver’s current stint. The driver can also analyze the data recorded during their track outing in detail using the BMW M Laptimer app on their Apple iPhone – and share selected information with the online community. Among the resources available are a bird’s-eye map view of the track, a lap time comparison, data from the car’s sensors such as speed, engine revs and accelerator position, and graphics showing the lateral and longitudinal acceleration values attained.

https://www.usinflationcalculator.com $50k in 2002 is about $72k today. The real deal, despite it's age is the M2C (not biased because I have one on order, still contemplating a G80). At $61,645, this equates to about $42,500 in 2002, or a then-loaded 330Ci coupe. If anything, the cars are actually a value today. That being said, other costs (housing, healthcare, insurance, energy in some states) have risen more than inflation, and some costs have appeared and crept from where they didn't really exist before. How many people spent $200-300 a month on cell phones, Starbucks coffee and extraneous subscription services 20 years ago? Combine this with the fact that people generally are tied to dollar figures. I'm not terribly old, and I remember when a "base 911" was $75k. You can't get one for $100k today. It's not the car, it's all the other crap!

Thank god this car has remote start. I'm spoiled with my wife's cadillac and I hated that the F80 didn't have it. In Miami it's a need to cool the car before going into a sauna...even with dark tints.

Find it humorous that the top of the line model still only gets Harmon Kardon- notorious for vibration whenever playing any above and beyond track with organ cords on logic 7 surround mode.
Fucking hate this sound system in my x4mc. |

Brooklyn Gray, 826M wheels, Silverstone Full Leather, Pack M Performance (only way to get M Carbon seats - obliged to have Ceramic brakes as part of pack), Pack Innovation > 165,139.99 EUR = 194,441.66 USD Luckily I'm not fully convinced by the design. Looking forward to the presentations though. Happy Shopping |

Does anyone know what 7ME M Driver's Package is? It is excluded when you get a sunroof.

Assuming it's like it has been in the past, it increases the top speed and gives you the M School pass.
https://www.google.com/search?q=m+drivers+package It's not absolutely clear whether there is a technical reason why you cannot get it with the non-CF roof or if that is more of a marketing move. |
