My Ride: E60 530D
Reg 18th Sept 2003 (uk launch date)
xenons, wood, mirror pack, 17" rims, Hi Fi spkr,
Met Black
On Order 530D M Sport Auto Silver Grey
Visibility & Media Packs Wood & Lumber Support
just picked it up too dark to photo will post pics later.
the ride is so much nicer than my se was.
not as crashy or noisy can't understand it because the sport should have stiffer suspension and lower profile wheels than the 17's on my SE
Only problem is that it won't pair with my phone.
so I will have to take it back to the dealership tomorrow.

Just ordered new silver/grey s530d M Sport and with Media and Visibility packs the car is a MY06 build week 39 and is in stock at a UK dealer.
My dealer has told me that he has a memo from BMW on his desk that says the car will be able to play MP3 cd's following a software update due in December the dealer said he will show me the memo when I go in to sign the papers on Monday.
He has also confirmed that the upgrade will be FOC.
Has anyone else heard about the software update?

Yes the sport does have Goodyears whereas the SE had Bridgestone Potenzas
this is quite surprising because many of the posts I have read, particulalrly from across the Atlantic, have slated the Goodyears.
