2011 X5 5.0i w/ M-Sport
 

I just order a 2011 X5 5.0i fully loaded like my 2008 with the M-Sport Pkg. I wanted the paddle-shifters, but dealer is telling me that it is ONLY available on the X5M. Is that true?

Yes.

Is there a factory aero kit available for the MSport?

No. M-sport is a kit. You can't get a kit for a kit. :)

You can add paddle shifters later if you are so inclined. X6 also has paddle shifters.

Thanks...I understand...however I was able to build a 2010 MSport and add the aero kit on BMW's site....I will post pic later....thanks again.

See pics of 2010 MSport I built with BMW factory aero kit...so that is why I asked if this was available for the 2011 MSport...

^ the facelifted (2011) aero kit is differently designed.

The LCI M Sport is different for 2011. BMW redesigned the front bumper.
