I know this is for the US but has anyone heard if we are getting it in Aus?

This is mentioned on the BMW Australia site, however, there is little other information available

Good Find, Dave.. There appears to be a picture, depicting an additional oil cooler on the opposite side...

There has been at least one another thread following this.

This thread has already had over 300 replies and nearly 24,000 viewers. My dealer told me some months ago it was due out here in Australia at the end of July, but I doubt it.

Apart from that, it will probably be very expensive at 2000 Euro (A$3500+ not including fitting it) for quite modest gains (25hp), but it will have the BMW warranty in its favour and most people believe the hp gains quoted will be on the conservative side.
