Shark fins

josh · 12-05-2007, 08:26 AM

Do all 1-series cars come with the 'shark fin' antenna? I was under the impression only ones with Nav. or satellite radio do, but weas recently told (Boston show) that all 1-seris will be delivered with the shark fin.
Can anybody confirm whether shark fins will come on all cars?

As far as I am concerned, all new BMWs have the shark fin antenna regardless of how they are equipped

I believe you need either satellite radio or navigation. but I could be wrong

Only the convertibles do not have shark fin antennas, IIRC.
