Many thanks for your continuing flow of vital information! It has been key to my forward planning.

On the F36: Would you know when the build will start for the final MY2021 models?

F36 model year is July through June. MY2021 therefore will be July 2020 through June 2021. Right now I don't see anything that would suggest an early end to F36 production. However, BMW is under heavy pressure to accelerate its EV plans, and if they manage to get G26 BEV ready sooner than currently planned it won't surprise me to see the switchover happen early. But I hope to learn of that ahead of time so that everyone here would be forewarned.

I am very interested in X6M

I loved mine previous model and I can imagine how much better will be this beast.

I think this will be mine 25th Bmw in 10 years

First time I see this:

2021 G30 5er
- 545e xDrive

Where does this come from?

I can answer this three different ways:

1. It will come from BMW Dingolfing plant.

2. It comes with the latest update I made a couple of days ago.

3. See the second FAQ question in the top post.

Wow, are you gone get the G80 too?
You mentioned that you gone have it for track only?

You were the first guy that modded the F90 and I absolutely love it

Few months ago I got the GO5 X5 for family and will replace it with new X6M

And YES, G80 CP for track. Will go under heavy modification on that one

Nice!!!
Can't wait to see it.
You are really helping in BMW sale increase

Any specifics on LCI for F90 M5 to include live dash and iDrive 7.0? Specifically if purchasing in 2020, when start of production with these features would be expected?

July SOP. Order in June for ED in August, or, if you don't know what's good for you and decide to pick it up at the dealership, September-October US delivery.

Update: first hard data on iX3. The big news here is that I can now confirm a U.S. market model.

Have you seen the new m3/4 or 4er? If so, do you think the long grille works?

I don't have access to actual pre-production cars. Official PR is the first time I see new models, like everyone else.

No 6MT for G22 either which makes sense but xDrive only for M440i? Interesting.

6MT is truly only for M3/M4 now (I hope...)!

The M340 is only offered in xDrive variants outside of the states, so this makes sense to me. I'd say the USA M340 will go the same direction by the time the G20 LCI hits (if not before then). Remember, the M340 being offered in RWD for USA only was somewhat of a game-time decision.

It's truly a sad day if both these things are true.

545e. About time! Was obviously missing.

So is it safe to assume the 330e will not announced until 2020? Any guess as to month?

iX3 specs: G08 (long wheel base X3), 75kW battery and RWD (will be denoted in the model name as "sDrive75"), 300hp, produced in China for worldwide sales, including North America, SOP in 2020.

BMW good luck with that one...

Of course it will.
Not really in Italy although they have a broad, solid charging network I tested last year with my i3 over 1'700km without any problem! But BMW isn't that popular in southern countires (except most Balkan countries).
But in Mid and North Europe the iX3 will sell great, also i4, no doubt!
