Mine is scheduled for a Week 16 build (15th April) so it hasn't entered production yet. Fingers crossed for the new dash. Hopefully then no later than the 2nd week of May we'll start to see some MY14's in the UK to confirm the changes in our market.

Haha!
Is there any literature on the dash anywhere - does the same dash feature in any other vehicles? Any changes to what it displays over the old one etc?

In the latest international version of the brochure it shows the full colour HUD and 9.2" black panel as being an option. MS

I emailed my sales chap some photos of the new black dash and asked if he had any more info and he replied as follows:

Do you have a link to the international brochure? Does the dash come with the HUD according to it?

Makes sense as it's another selling point for HUD. Bit like the way you get BMW Assist as part of the pro nav package and you can't just get the better screen and dash without getting the whole package.
Would be good if HUD also included speed camera sites and highlighted potentially good looking women on the pavements ahead. I also like my climate windscreen and it's not compatible with HUD

Looking on the config, you can't select between two types of dash - I think the extended functionality dash has always been standard??

The white box indicator means it's optional but optional options are often included as part of packages. You need the price list that goes with this brochure because it will list the option codes and which options come with which packages or other options. E.g. it will tell you that BMW Apps can only be ordered in conjunction with pro nav etc Looking at the picture makes me want the latest HUD

I dont speak German, but going to the BMW Germany configurator makes it clear that the black panel dash is linked to the HUD...
You can't choose the dash as a separate option either. The UK configurator shows the new full colour HUD, but no mention of the dash There is no mention on the BMW USA configurator of the full colour HUD or new dash, despite knowing that a USA spec car has both... !

Just saw an interior pic of a 2014 that was just delivered (in the US). It did not have HUD and does not have the black panel dash. Only way to get it is with HUD.

I wouldn't worry too much about what the UK configurator says. It's always had missing information and incorrect information. Quite why they can't put a basic description of every option is beyond me. E.g. enhanced bluetooth, click details and a bigger picture appears but no description of what it is! It's been like that for 2.5 years.
My take on it is that they won't produce old and new HUD at the same time so if they're producing new HUD with the new dash for American builds already, if you have ordered HUD and pro nav in the UK, you'll get the new dash too

hello there! After NBT installed, the height of the front dash unit is longer? So, the storage room below will be smaller?
Would you mind to post a closer look on the outlook on that? Thanks.... |
