Beewang has confirmed to me that his car does not, I repeat DOES NOT have the BT capability yet. We are hoping that VPC would install it once the car gets back to US. We'll keep praying in the mean time.

My Ride: 545i (steptronic), silver, grey leather , active cruise control, active steering, xenon headlights , glass sunroof, navigation , voice command, logic 7, cd changer, power rear sunshades, rear airbags, park distance control, garage door opener, fold down rear seats, sport suspension, lighted BMW in all door frames, GPS tracking device.
Hello everybody. I am new to this forum.
This topic is also very important to me. I spoke numerous times to BMW representatives, but they have no clue when this going to be available in U.S.
That is why I decided to go other direction.
I would like to ask if anyone knows if It is possible to buy a Bluetooth from Germany and install it to my new BMW 545I, 2004.
Please let me know if this would be possible.
Thank you.

My Ride: 2005 530i, SMG, Silver Grey, Black leather w/anthracite trim, Premium, Sport, Cold, Rear Fold Down Seats, Rear Seat Heating, Xenons. Mods: 545i chrome grill, Euro Red Reflectors and 20% window tint. Coming Soon: Dual LCD monitors w/DVD and Subwoofer install.
My dealer, confirmed that my 2005 530i, non-nav, non-sat radio has blue tooth as standard equipment. However, because I have no way of knowing yet without a phone, I can't be certain they aren't just reading that off of a piece of paper.
However, this month (finally) Sprint is releasing a new bluetooth phone, which I plan to buy and if I drop the money on it and the car is not enabled, I'll be sending the bill to the dealer.

My '05 545i is waiting for a boat in Germany. I have had the Bluetooth discussion many times with my dealer. They have been very consistent in saying that all MY '05 E60s will support Bluetooth, but as a dealer-installed option. He didn't have specifics on price or when he will have the kits to do the install.

[So, we know BT will be available for MY05, but don't know whether it will be a standard (free), or optional (mucho dinero) equipment.
