2012 X6 50i Pics

Ima b me · 04-22-2011, 12:31 AM

I am super excited that I can pick up my new x6 in 4 days!!! I had placed my order in January but to delays I could not get it before now but as luck would have it I am getting a 2012!! I nearly flipped when I saw the pics with the new paddle shifters in f1 style! Does anyone know if all models have the same shifters? Will post new pics next week !

Your X6 is beautiful! Would it be possible for you to take a picture of the front, and lower front (bumper) and post? I'm trying to see if the grill that is included with the sport package is black (schwartz) or painted silver.

Grill in the center and under bumper is silver. Only the grills on the front sides (around the fog lights) are black. Sorry no pic but I checked it today for you.

Can you tell me how did you manage to make the front headrest to adjust like that ?
I tried doing it on my X6M and was afraid to break something inside ?

You have the x6m so you don't have the multicountour seats. Sorry, you car has the sport seats only.

Are the paddle shifters different from the 2011 models? The OP pics looks like the paddles are like the M paddles, with +/- on each.

Yap, 2011 X6 is still using the original version paddle shifters. This newer version use extensively in F10 models.

Wonder is it possible to do a retrofit to the new version paddle shifters? Just afraid the wiring might be an issue.

I did retro fit the paddles and M wheel on my 2011 X6 50i. It was super easy, no wiring and no errors. love the new paddles.
