535dse,
Just an observation, maybe its the light from your photos. Are you sure you got the Sun Protection Glass? The rear window and rear door windows don't seem that dark compared to the front windows and the 7 series behind in the photos. I have the Sun protection glass on mine and in photos they do stand out. If you ordered them then you should have them.

Thanks. All E60s look great. Don't you just love them even with minor niggles here and there with noise and software bugs.

Hi
Yes there is a marked difference between the front and back.I'm going to have the fronts lightly tinted to match.

I have today visited a dealer in the UK who had a 535D sport.

Its looks stunning...........................

The dealer said they were worried that they would struggle even more to sell the STD "5"

I have ordered one today

ONYX BLUE with CARAMEL and every extra I could think of.

Because it has the individual options it will take 10 to 12 wks to deliver.

and I got a good discount !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am very interested in the individual options you mentioned. I am considering Equipment 1 which is available as of now, full leather including dashboard, alcantara headlining and individual wood. The M5 at the Paris Motorshow had this, it looked stunning gives a massive lift to the E60 interior. Pricing is still sketchy though as Eqpt2/3 were released in June but Equipment 1 is new. I also considered Onyx Blue but it is a bit too dark I am afriad it is going to be too high maintenance so going for Orient blue.
