2009-10 Sport Package Contents for Canada?

I'm looking to buy a used E70 with the active steering option. I'm looking at 08+ models in Canada. I see many 2009's with the sport package, but have been unable to determine if that package...

No vibrations or shimmy that I've noticed at any speed (up to about 100mph anyway).
No complaints.

They weren't up when I bought either, so I just thought I'd email to ask if they would be getting them, and they already had them. Good price, good service, I'm happy.

I had the same issue with my 2011 X5 50i, and now with my 2012 50i. Always seemed odd to me that the tank would be almost empty, but it would never seem to use as much fuel to fill as the stated fuel...

I haven't heard anything about this release, although being in Canada, I was told by the accessory manager at my dealer that it tends to be available in the US before we get it.

No spacers, just normal staggered fitment from what I know. I do have the extended arches on order, I'll add pics once they're on. The blue is great, similar to Lemans blue which I had on my 06 X5....

Don't notice any lag on mine. Very smooth, even my wife commented on how smooth the shifting feels compared to our old X5 (06 4.4i). Definitely pulls hard between 3-4k rpm.

My 2011 X5 50i is in Canada, ready for pickup. Sounds like lots of 2011 35d's have made it to Canada already also. Less stringent regulations in Canada apparently.

2011 Production & Orders

I've been following closely all the posts related to the 2011's and it appears some people have confirmed orders and even production dates.
Is there an official production start date for the 2011's?...

I noticed that also, I really hope they do make them available, but it's not looking good from this. Also appears that lane departure is only available with the premium and M-sport package.

It appears the side view cameras aren't available on Canadian spec X5's (unfortunate), so I'm sure the packages in the US will be considerably different. Overall, very similar to the 2010 option...
