I think you are wrong about the LED corona rings. 5 and 3 (coupe only) have LED, but 2012 x6 gets the standard corona rings (not LED).

Week 14.... I think I got lucky because of the dealer allocation. I dunno. But I'm not complaining.

Have you tried calling. They will answer all your questions. Pretty easy.

I read somewhere that only 2012 x5 will only be upgraded with the LED corona rings.

I guess my CA is wrong
Though he was reading some sort of documentation regarding 2012 X6
I asked him about headlights and taillights changes and he said only coronas are getting updated to LED, no other changes to lights

How do you know 2012 is not getting LEDs?

In europe there will be no changing in the corna lights. the latest info I have recived is that the will be a facelift in April 2012. Then we will have the 6 series LED lights on the car. Nothing confirmed yet, but the guy I talked to know pretty much all there is to know...

You are correct, US 2012 model is actualy April 2011 production, so unfort. no LED coronas for both US and Europe. I also got info that the facelift will come in April 2012 which will (I assume) be a US 2013 model. Having said that, now am starting to worry they will move my production date although it would not be fair, as I made the order in Jan 2011.

2012 BMW X6M  [0.00]
Just as an update, the 800 number now says that my 2012 X6M is in the paint shop and will be done a day early -- on April 6.

Still no word, though, on whether any 2012 X6 has passed the EPA and CARB emissions testing. Until that happens, I don't think the plant will release the cars. That may explain the delays that some have been reporting, and it could even be backing up the production times (but that's just speculation).

Finally, I've not heard about any other updates to the MY2012 X6, except the 3-seats in the rear and Apps. I don't know about LED headlights or anything else. I hope that my new car isn't obsolete too quickly! The biggest thing I wanted that hasn't been updated is the black panel dash like the new X3 and 5-series; but, my guess is that a change of that magnitude won't happen until the X6 hits its next F-code platform (again, speculation).

But, even with all that speculation, it sounds like my car will be complete tomorrow, so that's cool! Now I just have to wait for emissions testing before they schedule my Performance Center Delivery date.

Yeah, unfortunatelly black panel (i asked CA about it as well) is not on 2012
Regarding the LEDs, i dont think this is such public info, vs actually new features and updates
Seat and apps are the options you buy, LEDs not

The way gears are shifted on the steering wheel is also different for post April 2011 production. This is a no cost option as well. I got the info from BMW here in Austria, this was my specific question and the answer I got was there will be no changes with the lights. In addition, in the new catalogue available on-line
http://www.bmw.de/de/de/newvehicles/...catalogue.html

There is no mention of LED corona rings in it and everything else is mentioned that was announced, even the steering wheel paddles are now shown different on photos. Still you got me going (it is 7 am here) and I hope that you are right and BMW made last minute changes and your CA read them on some top secret document with coffee stains (this is how rumours on forums start). Perhaps the dealer thinks it would be logical (like I thought initially), Would really like to know where he read about the LED lights Can you ask him to show you this document, back lights are LED from start, perhaps he got all confused.
