Is there a PDC Display
 

I recently purchased a 05 E53...I thought when I was test driving various E53's that the PDC showed a distance readout when parking on the Navigation monitor....Is it possible that I am imagining that or perhaps that was a later production date?? Anyone know?

no, just changes beep frequency / speed, the e70s have it (you basically have to have an iDrive car to have the digital readout)
