I love how detailed BMW is, the CIC parking sensor even shows the exact car model

Dx11 · 05-06-2021, 06:50 AM

I have a space grey e93. It shows it exactly right. Including the LCI details AND the roof lines which only the e93 has. They could have easily made the picture the same for the whole e9x lineup but they didn't and I think that's awesome.

Where's the emoji for jerking off?

It's a really nice attention to detail. The newer G series cars even have color-coded icons which is even better.

It is a little annoying though that they used a pre-LCI sedan icon in the check control CIC menu…

If they cared about accuracy they'd show puddles of oil.

Missing the shark fin on the trunk lid. Literally unusable. Lemon law that.

The top is stuck shut and the roundel kinda looks like it’s been stolen. 100% accurate

Don’t be so negative) not all e90s are standing in the puddles of oil.
But I’d say that this was quite good for mid 2000s, got to give some props to BMW

Yea it’s a nice touch.

Actually I don't have the fin! It's not standard in the EU because we don't use sat radio and the fm antenna is the car body.

Now I wonder if US e93s have a fin in the image. Anyone?

Probably
My e70 shows the shark fin on the screen.

All right I'm going to be impressed if they added that detail for UK and US markets

That's really cool. Any US e93 owners in the thread?

This is fake news. Are you a Russian bot?

Me.
I just ordered the backup camera but don’t have sensors.
I’m sure it appears on them though.

Yes indeed, who else takes care of their BMWs? With the help of other agents on this forum, it wasn’t particularly challenging for me to fix the oil leaks on my e90)

This is a good point.

Many of them are standing in puddles of coolant.

My CIC shows my car's exact wheel style.

Style 162? That's what mine shows. If your's is different that means there's a coding parameter which controls the car icon…

Google says it takes a VO, at least for an F chassis, e90 probably has the same system. Some interesting vo options here:
