Update on mine after plenty of carbon additions and a well overdue wash

Which splitter is this? I am am concerned the BMW one will lower the front end too much and it will scrape. This one looks better.

Thanks

They’re the genuine M Performance front winglets with a Sterckenn-style centre splitter which I bought from AC Carbon, I think other companies like AUTOID/R44 Performance sell them too.

My 1997 Z3 Japanese import. Bought for commuting, then changed jobs and ended up dry stored until this week (my brother needs his garage back). I'd forgotten just how handsome these are. Less than 30k miles on the clock too.

Its amazing how many miles are lost crossing over the waters....

Is it an auto - most Jap cars are?

Grabbed a couple of quick pictures with the new wheels & Eibach suspension.

Do my grilles look big in this?

I'm so pleased BMW aren't doing the big grills on the new 2 series and M2...

When I was growing up I was always told that bigger was better...so no I don't think so!

I've always wanted a 7 series and I'm a big fan of them.

Very nice, enjoy it.

I keep expecting the bad guys in a spaghetti western to reach out from between those bars, but that interior looks fab.

You've got to careful that you don't fall in when you walk past, I think that's why they fitted the shutter system.

If you don't me asking, when did you order your 7 series? Also, do you know if your central control display is 10.25 inches or 12.3 inches?

I've got a 745e on order (leased via broker) and I've seen some conflicting information about the size of the central control display. BMW's UK and Ireland websites says that the control display is 12.3 inches but all other BMW websites I've checked says it's only 10.25 inches. BMW UK's Twitter team also confirmed it's 12.3 inches so it looks like we get slightly different specs compared to everyone else?

I don't get peoples problem with the larger grill. Having seen a number of them in the flesh it looks ok and proportional to the car.

Indeed after seeing it then looking at the pre-facelift it now looks like a stupidly small grill, as if it was grafted on from a 1 series.

I'm just waiting for the 'big grill' 760s to drop a bit more and then I'll get one to replace my recently sold F02 760.

I ordered it on 27th June delivery last week via Berry BMW, as for the screen sizes, the following is taken from their press release.

"The standard BMW Live Cockpit Professional comprises a fully digital, high-resolution instrument cluster behind the steering wheel with a screen diagonal of 12.3 inches and a Control Display measuring 10.25 inches across"

The twitter team are getting confused between the idrive control screen (10.25) and the instrument cluster (12.3)

Thanks mate! I thought the same at first so I asked again and their Twitter team explicity said that both the control and instrument display are 12.3 inches on the 7 Series.

Also, on the BMW UK and Ireland websites, it says the following about the 7 Series Live Cockpit Professional (Configurator -> Options).

"Live Cockpit Professional includes a high-resolution 12.3" Control Display that can be operated by touch and a fully digital 12.3" Instrument display."

The plot thickens... My order was placed late July for delivery in November so I highly doubt anything has changed since you ordered yours. What's 2 inches between friends anyway.

It does indeed! Mine was built on 21st July, Maybe they just changed it for August builds onwards?
