Black Panel Dash in X6?

[BigBobDeuce]

Does anyone know when the X6 will get the black panel dash board and gauges (with the TFT screen built in), as the 5 series and new X3 has?

Am guessing earliest in Sept 2011 production, though not likely. Had the same question for the dealer and could not confirm changes other then those for March 2011, so I placed the order as there are always going to be changes at least twice a year. x6 keeps selling well, so they stay back on the changes. Dealer did confirm no facelift in 2011, rather in fall 2012. I could not get my eyes of that black panel in the GT and 7, now even the 5 is getting it! My money would be that in Sept 2012 production x6 will get new LED rings front, new LED in the back (as on the hybrid concept), and possibly an M-package as well as the new full color HUD and black panel instruments.

Most unlikely you will see those black panel, dash board and gauges in all X6 E-XX production. Those lovely black panel, dash board and gauges are only found in the newer F production cars.

Thanks, Croatian and Audioquest. I like both your answers, since I ordered a 2012 X6M for April production, and I don't want it to be obsolete too quickly!
