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.

"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)

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.

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

My F90. Its ticks the performance and tech boxes easily, looks are subjective in my view. Already done a few little tweaks, 0 to 60 is 2.64 so far which is frankly stupid for such a big car! Came with premium pack so have the massage and cooled seats plus a load of other stuff which ive not used yet.
