Active Cruise camera / sensor on '13 F30?

raceing86 · 07-10-2012, 06:19 PM

Anyone know where they are going to be putting the camera/sensor on the car?

metrickid · 07-10-2012, 11:14 PM

In the center of the middle opening in the front bumper. Not pretty!

I too was wondering where they were going to put it..

That looks really nasty!

I found the sensor on realoem. Doesn't look like the sensor on that car. I believe that is a M-Sport, and as of now, you can't get ACC on M-Sport cars. Not sure what that could be if that isn't an ACC sensor though.

It looks pretty much the same on the other lines.
You can get ACC with M-sport from july production in the rest of the world.

Damn, Im glad I dont have that option if thats what its going to look like. It reminds me of a St. Bernard with the little barrel/keg under its neck. lol

hahaha, thats pretty accurate man.

I got the option, I built a car just like mine from the south african website, and they included it in their config. Doesn't look as bad in my opinion. (That could just be my wishful thinking.)

We'll see in a few weeks, my car is waiting on a carrier. It was finished on the 9th.

I have it on my upcoming M-sport! Looks like shit but I love how it works.

So, my car finally came in. Its still at the dealer, but he sent me a few pics. The sensor is in the center of the front bumper. Thought I'd post a pic of it on a real car incase others were wondering.

It does not look too bad on the M Sport in my opinion, while on the Luxury line the ACC sensor cuts into the chrome line beneath the front licence plate which is unfortunate.

hi, an intruder from the 5 series forums!, but thought for comparison purposes I'd show the acc sensor on a msport F10
I think it looks fine on this
