Question about the stereo...

some pictures in the manual show the stereo face on the speedometer as having a larger display than others....

What's the difference?

I got the standard stereo on the MCS but the few that I test drove with the 6 speaker systems had the larger display. I got the multifunction wheel which will put the different controls on the speedometer such as bluetooth.

Which one can I expect on my ordered car?

Since you say it's on order I'm assuming you actually are talking about the second generation rather than the first gens.
I don't know about two different size radio displays but there is the option of Navigation:

The standard radio display looks like this:

Navigation is available with either of the sound systems. If you didn't order Navigation you'll have the typical display.
