No B&O in Canadian M5??

Has anyone else heard this or better yet can any of the guys who have ordered or picked up their F10 M5 in Canada confirm this?

It's not on the Canadian BMW website and I asked a salesman and he says it can't be ordered?
I can't see why ROW can get Bang and Olufsen except for Canada?

I have a 2013 Alpine white on cohiba brown m5. I live in toronto. I am thinking of selling it. If you are interested be happy to chat with you. Car has 5000km and in mint condition. Only been on the road two months. my email is starbucks7777@gmail.com. I have the regular/stock stereo and its pretty amazing. I don't think you need to upgrade to b &o. A few reviews on here suggest its not that much better. Cheers

I agree and I have the B&O system in my M5. B&O is fine but not worth $3700.

Hey Slammed,

In Canada its a custom order of 5900 for BO and 400 for (special order option). Fun! Nothing against those who got it, I really don't feel its worth the money, get full leather or aftermarket exhaust with that coin.

wow, that's almost $7K, taxes incl. ... unless you spent like 5 hrs+ in your car every day enjoying the B&O sound system, then maybe worth a look.

Otherwise, that $7K can be put towards a nice set of forged wheels and/or exhaust system or upgraded suspension, etc.

Why are you selling it? Thanks for the offer but I am looking at doing a Euro delivery sometime in 2013 (spring/summer) so I'm not looking at "used" cars...also looking to lease it. Is yours bought or leased?

Ouch, didn't know it was that expensive but still seems a lot cheaper then up here in Canada. Is it also a special order item in the US?

Thats ridiculous...$6300 for B&O...def would not get that! Full leather is a must, so that was already in the budget...I'm looking at getting Executive Package ($9500), Full Leather ($4500) and Piano Black Trim ($1000).

Agreed!
