Anyone know what will be new/different for 05?

I've searched the board, and found:

* Electronics fixes (bluetooth/BMW Assist fix, NAV/Sirius fix)

* 10% more horsepower from tweaks to emissions system (true?)

And that's it. Anything else - anything at all? (New colors, ...)

I'm considering waiting until the 05 model comes out for ED.

Not unless the engines are replaced by the new-generation direct-injection sixes. I think if BMW could liberate 10% from emissions tweaks then the cars probably won't be passing any emissions/smog tests anytime soon :).

The NG6 replacement for the M5x is due in the new 3er. Those engines will doubtless surface in the 5er, IDC.
