E60/E61 interior change - when ?
Guys, i'll be moving from E39 to E60 soon and wonder about below pictures showing SZM/button panel.
As will be getting `08 builded car, can i expect lower or upper type of panel ?

And could anyone please shoot me how does this panel look with all options included (heating/venting/active arms holder, dunno if i called it correctly) ??




Tks

The year you are looking for is 08' and after, that is when BMW gave the M5 and the 5er a facelift and the M5 got one more at I believe 09 with larger mirrors and updated Navi.

the top pic is 08 and after
bottom pic is pre 08

Updated Nav was put into the M5 as a 2010 model. However, the 2009 had the same controls (buttons instead of the single idrive controller) as the 2010 but still had the old navigation.
