I've been driving my father-in-law's 2013 X5 for a while and didn't notice this until today. When did this start and end? Was this only for this generation? It reminded me of the non-matching Mercedes side mirrors.
makes perfect sense...

exactly. driver can 'hang on' to the steering wheel. passenger can't so give 'em a handle.
the lc500 has a handle on BOTH sides of the passenger seat, for uh, spirited driving.
Why do you think you want it? To save fuel or just to see how it works? You already disable the V8TT
I'm just curious if it cutting half the cylinders off during cruise is noticeable and how much fuel it saves. It should also in theory extend engine life since it alternates banks every few minutes.
The V8 start stop is annoying and it's cylinder deactivation is noticeable and that's why I deactivated them.

On the current one, the mirrors don't fold in same amounts. They are also placed differently. I read it's done this way to compensate the driver's position. Another thing that is off is on non M package, the bumper, where the air vents are, is not totally symmetrical. I don't know the reason for this.

I saw a new LX600. From behind the clearance is ridiculous. When I was by side, I swear I can probably squeeze my head into that rear wheel gap. I've seen this thing before few times but why this one is so off? Does it have an off road mode that was left on?
I saw a couple new 7 Series on the road the last couple days. I gotta say, it’s growing on me. I saw one in Carbon Black today that was really stunning. This is spec’ed like that car was.
I like the square sedan roofline, really unusual today. Front…still a lot.
