Msport Package - Increase speed limiter not for X-drives??

Again...Bmw has another thing is that conflicting each other for the 2013 F10s

When you build it online part of the Msport package "increase speed limiter" is listed for all F10's. On My BMW account when i click on the list of options for my 535xi it also shows this.

but.....

In the official document posted here which was revised this month, under the Msport package only the RWD models get the increased top speed and not the Xdrive models.

Not that its a big deal since i don't plan on cruising at those speeds here in New York but i would still like to know what my car is capable of achieving. From my understanding all standard Bmw's are limited to 128mph top speed here in the US and those with increased top speed option can take it up to 155mph

Its listed on mine too for my 535xi. Just that brochure posted above looks official which indicates differently. hmm..

Mein Auto: '13 X5M, 650xi
My 2011 550xi was limited to 150mph. Which, I verified frequently on the Autobahn.

Nowadays, my car should do 181mph, but unfortunately it is "in theory" only.

Alan, beautiful car...but did you pick your car up in Europe? I noticed the rear fog light.. And where did you get your wheels? Are they off-set (bigger in the rear)? I didn't know if you could do that with X-Drive
