If they do the new iDrive in March as an early 2010 model then most likely no facelift until 2011 model--it will be interesting to see what they do. My bet is they just include it on '09's.

08 5 series did have some minor body changes at LCI as well as some additional changes to exterior lights. LCI press release was in early January. The 08 E60 cars were available in April 07.

How definite is the March production having the new CIC? Any idea if it will be it a 2009 or early 2010 model year?

So if the E70 follows suit, then perhaps we'll see an LCI E70, MY 2010 in April '09?? That would be great.

Who really knows. I read it in this thread; the moderator provided the information.

BMW Dealers around Germany said that the new CIC will not be released until 09/09! Canīt believe that.

Any new information about the availability of the new CIC on X5 E70?

2010 model, releasing fall '09 according to my dealer..

My wifes new '09 335xi has the updated iDrive/hard disk/nav screen update - nice and certainly better than the current E70, but not a reason not to buy IMO.

I bought an '09 anyway.

Is everything including the nav pretty much instant? THe current idrive has a delayed response for everything, most notably the nav as it searches the disc.
