BMWUSB website updated to 2012 X5
 

Diesel is still in 2011;

And BMW app require Navigation.

The 35i and 50i now say LED Corona Rings. The 35d says halogen Corona Rings!! WTF? Why would BMW give the base model 35i LED Corona Rings, but the 35d gets halogen??!! Sucks!

F@cking BMW!!! I'll never forget this crap. LCI model not getting the new headlights...f@cking retarded!

I know!! FOUR years after the E70 debuted, us 2011 owners buy the official LCI model. And then the rest of the world gets LED Corona Rings for the 2011 LCI and the US (the X5's biggest market) gets shafted with 2007 model headlights (IMO, the best LCI change).

Then 2012 models get LED rings....and 2012 is not even the LCI launch year. I am very, very disappointed with BMW!!

For the LED rings, there is no excuse that diesel didnt' get it but only gas has it. They both should be built in the same assembling line at the same time.

Imaging when a diesel X5 pass the assembling line, suddenly a Halo ring instead of LED is passed over to robot hand, it must think "WTF, am I racist?":dunno:

Take a look at the uk website for some extra angriness

I agree with everything you guy's are saying here. Ordered 2012 35i SA. Got the Tech Pkg because I wanted the sideview camera (don't ask me why), thought, HUD and high beam assist was just a bonus.

Was sitting in 2012 5-series at dealership. Noticed HUD now has better graphics and better color (you can see it if you go to BMWUSA and build a 6 series). Asked my SA is this a different option and if so, how much more does it cost. He told me same price as the one you are getting in your X5 exept this is the new improved version.

I was like WTF, sorry, 2012 5 series, 2012 6 series, 2012 X5, why charge the same price for the same option and cheap the customer who buys the X5. At least if you are gonna get rid of the leftover parts, discount them.

I am sorry, it seems to me that they only do this on US Spec vehicles. I live here in Europe, and they normally get the newer tech first. I maybe could understand on the 5/6 series, but like someone said, the US market is the largest for the X5.

BS in my opinion.

edmunds.com is also updated, it has detailed spec, invoice vs MSRP etc, but the model year is wrong for Diesel, it's listed as 2012

I've heard the 2012 diesel isn't coming out till end of year.
IT hasn't changed on the website, ie 2011, that is why the halos reflect the halogen bulb.

Canadian X5 models are up on www.bmw.ca

Diesel shows as a 2011, 35i and 50i 2011 models are there as well.

35i and 50i 2012 models are shown in the same list of models.

Prices up around $1000.

Published mileage shows very slightly better for the 2012 on the 50i, but much worse for the 2012 on the 35i. I suspect a new test protocol, as I don't think the real world mileage will have changed.

BMW Apps package (which includes smartphone integration) is listed for $300, doesn't require navigation.

BMW Individual options still available.
