Ceramic Brakes I see on this video!!! Wish there were an option on the X5M I took delivery of last week….Such a pity on a high end car not available…

It’s most likely because the x5m is not aim towards tracking, but m3 and m4 is. But I just don’t see why not, it doesn’t hurt to offer.

Having been in the past to the BMW Test Centre Arjeplog, I have circled the cold chambers. Data collected from Arjeplog is sent to the teams in Munich and Garching.

Expensive option but worth every penny if you ask me...have them on my M3CXdrive and had them on my M8C....no brake dust, incredibly stable and no brake fade...just awesome

Had them on my m5 and loved them. No dust but squeaky - the iSweeps are a great compromise, no squeaks and as much stopping power. Not sure if they last 100k miles like the full ceramics but I keep my rides less than 10k so oh well.

BMW, please announce the G90 M5 already.

This car looks so good in camo!

Probably even better looking than the production version

My lease is about to expire and was planning to order the X5 M60i but if cost is not much higher I might wait for the M5 Touring! Finally an alternative to the E63S or the RS6.

What is your measurement of "not much higher"?
Expect the M5 to be around the same price as the M8 with competition trim. That's probably pretty close.
