Should be able to get it for $27 at Realoem etc. Note mine has black stitching.

The key case for x3 has different color accent choices but does not fit x5 as key shape is different.
Sweet thanks!...ya I really like the X3 one with red accents

You don't need a panic button. Just hide behind the highness ...that's what Kevin Hart would do .

Agreed, 35i 2015 X-line, same silver finish
My key is just like this with lux line.
Edit: sorry, just saw this was already covered.

No more panic button?
Also that black area looks pretty bad compared to "old" key design, and I agree, Msport should definitely have a better key design, or at least color the buttons in body color, or maybe keep the buttons silver with edges body color.

Haha, I was just browsing for key cases since everyone was so fixated on some of them. The X3 by far has the coolest looking ones with nice colors. This picture just came up as I was searching for some and the rear panic button many of us have, but I guess some countries like Singapore don't.

In all honesty - as much as I love the ///Marketing design, I'd prefer small + light key to this monstrosity. I think I could bash some skulls with it (provided I also have an M-key ring attached to it).

P.S. ///Marketing idea to BMW - make keys out of carbon fiber for pure M cars. Win-win!

My personal dream "key" would be something small enough to be microchipped into my wrist watch....

I was thinking more like NFC in my wallet, one of those proximity sensor cards so I don't actually have to carry anything in my pocket.

Micro chipping it into the hand may be a little too Fire and Brimstone Book of Relevations for many out there - besides, how would you stop an ex-owner from driving away with his ex-car after he's sold it to another?

here is the photo of my 2015 X5 M sport key - with panic button
This thing is big, heavy, and clunky compared to the key for my wife's 2014 MB E350

To prove the "too heavy" point - here's an illustration. In all fairness though, most of it is attributed to the key-ring, but I'd still prefer a much smaller key in general.

I agree, it's too heavy/clunky for my liking as well, but at least it isn't this big, lol: http://www.bmwblog.com/2015/01/06/bm...creen-display/
