Any plan for PPK for other popular N55 model such like X3 and 5?

Ahh thank you for the verification.

1. Will there be a PPK for the new F80/2? Performance exhaust?
2. Will there be a PPK for the N63/Tü and S63/Tü? Performance exhaust?
3. Will there be a black series fighter for the M series? And it will contain S6/85 derived engines on top of turbo'd ones as well?
4. Will there be a 7-speed manual available in the near future and what about an 8-speed DCT?
5. Will there be a series of lightweight, raw, minimum electronic gizmo track specials for the M series?
6. What is the weight savings for the full led lights?
7. Are the carbon ceramic rotors not as biting as the stock ones?
8. Are individual throttle bodies gone for good?
9. Is BMW developing its own version of pilot tires for its M cars?
10. What other CFRP parts will be on the F80/2?
11. How long will the F8x chassis be around? Is the G-series coming sooner than later?
12. Is BMW designing a new M-specific engine for the F8x LCI? And if not, will it be based on the B68?

LSD:
I'm sorry but this NEEDS to be available as a factory/dealer installed options across all 2wd models. Porsche now offers a clutch pack option on the cayman for under 1k. Here in Canada with this little thing called winter - which happens in Germany too from my understanding- I basically drive around all the time with dsc fully off to get any traction. Xdrive isn't for everyone. Also- it would make track junkies so much happier, no viscous though - Torsen or clutch only. It's a NEED! ridiculous when we have to spend almost 4k parts and labour with the aftermarket to get "grip" or fork out big bucks for an M car.

Just go to BMW USA website --> Accessories and search for the "Powerkit" for your car. The description clearly says "for all BMW 335i".
Moreover there are many without the M-Sport who have already ordered it - the order requires the VIN and BMW has never got back denying on the grounds that the car is not an M-Sport line.

Thanks! They must have updated that because I don't remember seeing that emphasis there before... That or I just read it too quickly. Very happy though!! Hopefully my dealer can get it port installed.

Steering!

Where the steering is electric anyway, can BMW make the tech info available to dealers to be able to tighten up the steering.

I would like Comfort Steering to be like Sport and Sport / Sport+ to be 25% stiffer/tighter.

Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

Any chance the PPK and/or the M Performance exhaust could be made available for the Activehybrid 3?

[itwasepic]

Two questions:

1. Will the F30 335i M Performance Parts such as the front lip / front splitter come in Carbon Fiber?

2. Based on the Original Post picture of the Alpine White demo vehicle, why is the front splitter different than the front splitter in the catalog? I actually like the demo vehicle's front splitter / front lip color combo of white/black and prefer to buy it with this option.

Further to #5 above, if BMW builds a modern "classic" M car (which is a fantastic idea), may we please have the option for a traditional car "key"? IMHO, the rectangular fob should be considered a fad!

Jason,

When will BMW offer a performance / M brake kit for a 2013 F10 that is similar to that which is offered on the F30's. I and I bet many others around the world would like this retrofit badly!

1. Will there be a N20 exhaust for 528, will it be quad or 535 style.
2. Will they be selling m body kit for the f10 including the fenders

Question: Will BMW offer blacklines for the F30?
Question: I know it's early to be asking this, but will BMW offer a PPK of sorts for the F8X?

Yup! If I ever do get the M-Pref Splitter, I would most likely reinforce it. Check out these photos of the splitter during the Bridgestone SCC races. They get mangled pretty quickly.

Ok, so how about PPK for customers outside the US of A? Will the PPK (f10, f30, etc) be available for customers outside the US?
Let's say, Indonesian customers, for example, won't be able to purchase the PPK (the red envelope) due to different settings, i.e. fuel octane, a/f ratio, timing, humidity, temperature, whatnots?

yea I think that's it for now...

[Tarico]

Not sure if you are still accepting questions but...

1. How do the F20 M Performance parts compare to the equivalent stock parts for the M135i? Particularly, other than looking awesome, is there any performance benefit (or even hinderance) to the drilled M Performance brakes over the stock M135i brakes?

2. Are ther any plans to put M Performance options or, as someone mentioned earlier, an M Performance package into the configurator for new cars?

3. Any plans to release the 18" 2-tone wheels which appeared on the M135i concept (similar to the 19" 405M M Performance wheels, but without the inevitable tradeoff in handling).

4. Any thoughts on a PPK, or uprated exhaust/intake for the M135i (admittedly, the 335i PPK largely brings it in line with the M135i specs, but it would be cool nonetheless).

5. I CAN HAZ MOAR CARBUN FIBREZ?!?!

Here goes my sole question:

Are there any plans on releasing an M Performance Steering wheel in the shape of the standard/OEM M-Sport Line wheel?

I'd be all over that in a heartbeat.

Thanks Jason!
