Well I just happened to be by the dealer yesterday afternoon and checked out a CB, MSport 35i w/out the LED package. Sure enough, the front parking lights (orange) were in fact LED, as were the rear back up lights, and according to my CA, the rear brake lights are LED, but you cannot tell b/c the red plastic covering isn't transparent, more muted. I prefer the LED look like in the 5er or my E92 335is rear brake lights with the individual LED diodes can be seen through the plastic. It appears the only candescent light is the ugly front orange turn signal bulb.

Now do I go back on what I said earlier about having to purchase the LED package if the rest of the vehicle was LED...still not sold
